Meetings & Workshops

Guild Meetings

We meet the first Monday of the month (unless that Monday is a holiday, then we meet on the first Tuesday of the month.) There are two meetings, one at 10:30 am with registration starting at 10:00 am and one at 6:30 pm with registration starting at 6:00 pm.  The meetings are mostly the same so you can choose the time that works best for you.

The meeting consists of a short business meeting, a quilt related presentation, and ends with Show and Tell.

Guild Workshops

Workshops are the third Saturday of the month (except for March when it is the fourth Saturday) and no workshop in November and December.  Many workshops are geared towards learning something new, occasionally it will be a free sewing day, and we try to have one outside leader a year with a new technique or pattern.

Workshops will now be held at Faith Lutheran Church at 1437 Southwest Parkway.  It is the church located at the intersection of Southwest Parkway and Professional Drive.

 Some workshops will have a fee.

Bonus Workshops

In the hours between the two meetings there will occasionally be a mini workshop.  Topics vary and can consist of working on comfort quilts, QOVs, or learning a new technique. These workshops last about 3-4 hours and are held at Vernon College.  These workshops are free of charge.
