The guild was formed in 1987 by a group of ladies with an interest in quilting. There were 16 charter members. The group has met continuously since that time and has grown to a membership near 70. The guild meets for a monthly guild meeting on the 4th Thursday of the month. General info and committee updates occur at each meeting followed by an informative program, a period of Show and Tell, and door prize drawings.
Informal Quilt Bees meet during the month. A day group meets on the 3rd Tuesday from 9:30 am to 4 pm. An evening bee meets on the 3rd Monday from 6:30 pm to 9 pm.
The guild’s membership includes beginning to advanced quilters, young and not so young quilters. Quilting has no boundaries!!
A number of activities (e.g. workshops, bus trips) are planned each year.
Note: Meeting dates are adjusted in November and December due to the holidays. |
