Candidate Statements – President:

Gayle Bennett:

“During our first years I have worked as the Treasurer and been closely involved with the development of the guild. Moving forward I hope to be instrumental in our growth, encourage new volunteers to be our future leaders, while having fun and building our modern quilting community.”

Jessica Cook:

“I will be glad to run for President of the I.E. Modern Guild for 2019. I have experience in board positions due to the fact that I have been the President of Pass Patchers 2 years in a row and 2, 1-year terms as President for the Mini Quilt Lovers Guild II.  I have been a quilter for 25 plus years and have seen styles of quilting come and go.  I have learned a lot and I continue to learn. I love passing on my love of quilting to others.  Our guild is only as good as we make it.  We all need to work together as a team.”
