This is a new program to encourage our Guild members to meet, have fun and share their projects, knowledge and ideas. The groups we're talking about are small groups of perhaps 4-5 people. Cozy enough to sit around a kitchen table. This way you can either bring a sewing machine or do handwork. Whatever floats your boat. It gives us the opportunity to get new members involved right from the start. It's a small but excellent way to promote quiltmaking. And, you can invite someone who isn't a member of our Guild. Hopefully they'll have so much fun, they'll join.

We need Contact leaders to get the little groups going! You will be the group's secretary. You are not required to be a hostess. Once you get a few people interested in meeting, you'll work out all the details of the where, when, how long, etc. Just once you settle on a place or place, please include info about pets. We do have Guild members who are allergic to some animals. We will list the name of the contact leader and their email once we get going. Let's Go!

If you have any questions, please contact Sylvia Jacobus
