calendar... yes, kinda like the Hallmark purse calendar. Checkbook size or
even half that... something that you can mark the month/date in but doesn't
have the days of the week. So if a festival is always the 3rd Saturday of
Octember you can put that in. Or if Aunt Suzie Jo and Uncle Billy's
anniversary is a *must remember* you can put that in too.

There was something else I was looking for to tell you about, but I don't
know what it is called. A lady at my quilting bee had them this week. They
are clear vinyl, um... envelopes? file folders? that have elastic loops that
fasten over a button to close them. They are about 12.75" square and expand
to about a half inch wide. Just big enough to carry your 12 blocks around
to classes or bees to work on them or to store them in order while they are
waiting their turn. You could somehow maybe put your logo on them I would
think. She said they were given to her, but she thinks she has seen them
in Office Supply stores.

oh... and I like the thimble idea too!

Thanks for the great list, Kellie. I especially like the lanyard
for scissors ... maybe useful for membership card/name tag too!
It could have the guild name printed into the ribbon. Not sure
what this calendar would be, but it definitely has possibilities.
Are you thinking g of something on the order of the Hallmark
purse calendar, but perpetual instead of annual? TTFN, PAT

would
be even better with the quilt block on it!
- lanyards for scissors/glasses/???
- are pictures allowed to be taken? Maybe a small photo album/frame to
keep
their memories/ideas
- magnets
- ever popular t-shirts
- key chains
- sketch books/diary

I'll keep thinkin on it for you!
