Sew-Ins
Sew-ins are a fun way to finish up your WIPs in the company of friends. Once a year we host a Charity Sew Day sew-in to work on the guild’s current Community Service project.
Monthly Meetings
Monthly meetings are held the first Saturday of the month. We begin with general guild business, followed by our program. Show & Tell is our favorite way to wrap things up!
Guild Challenges
Guild challenges are a great way to build new skills and step out of your comfort zone. In February, the quilts hang in a special exhibit at the Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival.
Educational Programs
Presentations are usually given by our membership and other local talent. As we grow, we look forward to welcoming national talent to our little corner of the world.
Community Service Projects
We choose a minimum of one service project each year.
Swaps & Games
We like to spice things up with swaps, where members can give and receive – the Yankee swap is our favorite and can get a little rowdy. We love games, too, and you never know what we’ll come up with to make a meeting more fun!
Members-only Facebook Group
Our Facebook group offers members a “family only” place to share, learn and grow together.
