The Guild is open to anyone with an interest in quilts, whether a beginner, intermediate or advanced quilter, or as an enthusiastic onlooker. Membership dues are $45.00 per year or $10.00 per visitor.
The Guild provides the opportunity to meet new friends and share your common interest. You can participate in the Block of the Month (BOM), the block and / or quilt challenge, the workshops, QBA, retreats and the Quilt Show.
You can learn from and enjoy our many guest speakers, receive monthly newsletters, and enjoy your new friends. You can show your new quilt creations during show and tell at each Guild meeting.
