The Chapter Newsletter, Flying Fingers, is issued every other month and is distributed at the meeting.  Members who are not present will receive it in the mail.  Flying Fingers announces and has information for the various demonstrations and classes available to chapter members.  The Newsletter also announces regional needlework events sponsored by other chapters or state associations of the Embroiderers' Guild of America, Inc.
