Mt. Top Members----come one, come all----you are “toadily” encouraged to
participate in the February T.O.A. D. Project.   What’s a T.O.A. D. you ask?   It’s
a Treasured Object Almost Done ----definitely NOT to be confused with a
Trashed Object Abandoned in Despair.   Dig out TWO (not three,  as previously noted)
unfinished projects that you need encouragement to complete----bring them to the
February 18th general meeting.   You will show your TWO TOAD’s to the guild,
telling us a little background on each (such as when you began the project, what kind of
quilt project it is, why you haven’t gotten “a round tuit”).  The entire guild will vote on the
TOAD you are to complete by the February 16, 2009 meeting.

 

Those finishing their TOAD will get a reward and will participate in drawings for
GRAND PRIZES.   The only penalty for not finishing a TOAD is banishment from the
2008 Royal Order of the TOAD (by order of the Queen)!  TOAD support groups
are encouraged!!!
