It is with gratitude that we thank Cassandra G. for all her service as being Blog Mistress. Cassandra has been writing on this blog since early 2016: that's five years of goodness she's been delivering, right on schedule. We are so grateful for her writings, her musings, her photos, her maps, her videos and for keeping us updated.
Come join us virtually for another quilt zoom session this Wednesday evening at 6pm! The Zoom link is pinned to the top of the guild Facebook page or drop a message below and I'll email it to you. See you there!

Great news quilt fans! We've been able to procure our normal meeting room at the Goeske Center for Tuesday, January 31st! We'll be meeting at the normal time, 6pm, in the normal room, at the normal place, just two weeks later than normal!
We will also be taking memberships - the cost is $25 for year payable by check or cash (exact change appreciated). Everyone needs to fill out 2023 membership form, which you print and fill out to bring with you or fill out at the meeting.
The retreat teams will also be taking deposits for this year's Vinya de Lesstonac, aka The Nunnery, retreat in May, which will be May 12-14. The total is $340 and a $100 deposit is required to hold your spot; the remainder is due by the April 18th guild meeting.
Here's your reminder list of things to bring:

Most of you have probably heard from the Goeske Center that the Center will be closed this Monday and Tuesday January 16th and 17th due to rain damage, causing our guild meeting there to be a no go.
As an in person guild meeting this month is vital so that we can perform important guild business (Show and Share, Round Robin, 2023 membership, retreat signups, etc.), we are working on still having an in person guild meeting this month postponed one week and at the Goeske Center if we can. Stay tuned and we will confirm the date, time, and location of the January meeting just as soon as we can lock it it. Thank you for your patience!

Sorry about the delay everyone, but here you go! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Oooooh, you better watch out! You better not cry! You better not pout, because the meeting's has changed!
Raincross Quilt Guild is comin' to Zoooooom!
Yes, you heard right (or you remember from the announcements last month) that this month's quilt guild meeting is back in the Land of Virtual Toys - and that's OKAY! We've got games and toys for all good girls and boys!
We encourage you to wear Holiday attire, so break out those ugly Christmas sweaters, Santa hats, and antlers and wear them during the meeting!
As we have done in previous Zoom guild meetings, we will have a virtual Show and Share, so please get your pictures to Cassandra G. no later than 5pm Monday December 19th. You can share your new work but we also encourage you to share your favorite project you completed or worked on this year, or share a Christmas thing (even if we've seen - we're old and forgetful, so it'll be like it's new). Don't forget to also send pictures of any BOM blocks you've completed that you haven't shown yet. Again, please get your pictures to Cassandra (by email or text, contact information is in the directory or simply post below and we'll figure it out) no later than 5pm Monday December 19th to be included.
The link to the Zoom will be posted in the Raincross Quilt Guild Facebook group as well as emailed to all current members.

The 4th Saturday of the month this month is Christmas Eve, so instead of trying for that, we are rescheduling our Sew Day for this Saturday, December 17th instead! We will meet, like always, at the Lake Mathews Community Room 16453 El Sobrante Rd, Riverside, CA 92503, across from the fire station. We'll start at 9am and typically go to 3pm and have a potluck salad lunch (bring something to go with salad greens or a side or a dessert). If you have any questions, reach out to Barbara M. See you there!
