Our History

The first organizational meeting of the Florida Gulf Coast Surface Design Guild was held on Feb. 24, 2000 at the Selby Library in Sarasota, Florida, under the leadership of Louise Hall, who became our first president.  Fourteen enthusiastic people were present.

After discussing what surface design encompassed and what it takes to set up an organization, Louise set the tone for future meetings by demonstrating her use of machine sewing on soda cans.  We were all inspired to try new things.  Subsequent meetings continue to have member-led presentations on individual's specialties, which is stimulating for us all. 

Our first formal election of officers took place on February 25, 2003.  Emily Dunham-Smith succeeded Pat Fox as president.  Nancy David was elected president in February, 2004.  Lois Mills served as president from 2005-07, Kendra Drobnak served 2007-2009, and patsy monk is our current President.
