      Hi Anna, could you post your question to the class discussion group, that way your teacher will be able to answer your question. https://egausa.org/groups/class-basket-of-gold/ Let me know if you need any assistance.

    Since I cannot find what the definition of a “tier” is in the By-Laws for regions concerning region seminars, does anyone know what this terminology is referring to?

    Hello glove-makers! I know many of you might be waiting until the cooler weather is closer before you begin making your gloves. After the vinyl is folder for awhile, use a warm hairdryer to flatten it before making the placement guide. I hope to see some gloves posted at any time during appliqué or construction.

      I submitted a nomination for one of our members in the Metropolitan Region. Since there are no winners for that region, I would like to talk to someone to confirm that my submission was received. Can you suggest someone I can contact. Thanks,

      Dear Rand, my mistake. I see that Ellen Saines got the award for our region. Well deserved. Thanks

      Hi Suzanne, yes, we had her on the list but misspelled the region’s acronym. We caught it pretty quickly, thanks for the heads up. Have a great day!
