What Happened?

Here it is, the end of June and the months have just flown by!  It has been one big blur!

Our meetings started in January, we gained two very creative new members, Luibov Gasser and Vangie Velazco. Held a craft show in May.  BTW - it was our most successful show ever!  Many of our loyal customers came to shop and we gained some new ones.  It was so exciting to be back.

So now we are on hiatus until August.  Time for taking trips, trying new things and creating more goodies for our product lines.  Maybe organizing the craft room?  Hmmm.

We have been remiss about posting since there never seems to be enough hours in the day or night. Sharing pics to show that we are still here and crafting away.  

If you are interested in any of the items in our pics, contact us at lasvegascraftersguild@yahoo.com. We can put you in touch with the artisan.

Our fall Harvest Boutique is scheduled for Friday, October 1st and Saturday, October 2nd at the Sahara West Library.  Visit our Facebook page for updates:  https://www.facebook.com/thelasvegascraftersguild

Looking Back at 2020

 2020 was a year filled with so many different events.  The spread of Covid-19 put a screeching halt to our Spring Boutique Craft Show, meetings were cancelled, we stayed at home, ate too much, exercised too little, and tried several new things too.

We lost two of our dedicated board members, Sharon Takahashi and Merriam Olds.  They left huge holes in our hearts and we are grateful for their contributions to the Guild over the years.

A Harvest Boutique Craft Show was held in the fall and we were pleased with the outcome. Even with the constraints of social distancing, wearing masks, and lower attendance, we considered it a success.  We got to see old friends and customers, visit with members, have some fun, and even make some money. 

We have a new meeting place and day.  Our new meeting location is at The Christmas Goose Quilt Shop at 2988 S. Durango Dr. Suite 109.  It's a lovely shop and makes you want to buy tons of fabric and patterns.  We meet the 3rd Saturday of the month.  Meetings start at 12:30, jurying of applicants start at noon.  

An informal holiday party was held in October.  Thanks to Susan Tracy and Roma Deli we had a delicious lunch and desserts from Nothing Bundt Cakes.  

A 2021 spring craft show is scheduled for Saturday, May 15th and Sunday, May 16th at the Sahara West Library.  We are thinking positive thoughts that the Covid virus will be under control by then.  

Closing the door on the past, and looking forward to a safe and healthy 2021.  Sharing some pics  with you from 2020.
