"Not A Needle Among 'Em"
Event Location: Misson Palms Hotel - Grand Ballroom Event Details: The Seamstress Guild is a loose affiliation of women and men who come together for a variety of reasons. Our official purpose (whenever the Watch is making inquiries) is to prepare for the Seamstress Guild Party in honor of Sir Terry Pratchett which is to be the highlight of the North American Discworld Convention's first night. On the glorious night in question, the Grand Ballroom will be transformed into the Seamstress Guild Hall. Ladies of the Guild and gentleman from the Men's Auxiliary will be hosting a grand reception that involves food, music, and a Discworld scavenger hunt, as well as the chance to meet the very flower of Discworld Society, such as it is, and be photographed for the Truth's Society Page. Prizes for best costumes worn that evening will be awarded by our Esteemed Patron, Sir Terry Pratchett. Sir Terry has also arranged for a special gift for our attendees, which will remain a secret until the night in question.... This is to be the second party of its kind organized by the Seamstress Guild, the first taking place at the San Jose WorldCon in 2002, where Sir Terry was the Guest of Honor. The entertainment went well into the wee hours. Our Patron had such a good time with our Guild members and guests that he has asked us to do it again (it being the party, of course - Sir Terry has thus far refused all other offers) and so begain our preparations. We are now ready to host this next event and would be most pleased if you could join us, and him, on the night in question.
Respectfully Yours,
To visit the Seamstress Guild discussion board, where the men and women
of the guild are gathered to plan both the party and their costumes, go HERE.
