GUILD ACTIVITIES

The Guild provides a kit for a quilt block for members to learn about techniques, designs, and/or colors. Members can purchase the kit for a nominal cost; names of those who return completed blocks are entered into a drawing to win enough blocks to make a quilt.

CHALLENGE

Members donate (usually) hand-made items.  We sell raffle tickets for the item at the general  meeting.  A winner is drawn at the close of the meeting.  Proceeds from the Bit of Me drawing go toward the Guild’s activities.

Members participating in the Challenge quilt are given "rules" for each year's challenge. They are due at the June meeting and exhibited at the July quilt show.

Members bring a fat or regular quarter with a specific theme to a meeting and have a chance of winning a whole collection. You receive one ticket for each quarter yard you bring. If you have more than one quarter of the same fabric, you may leave it in one piece and receive multiple tickets.

The guild provides an extensive collection of books an videos for members to check out at monthly meetings.

 

We have a listing of library books, by title.

Pick-a-Prize: provides fun by giving participants a chance to win prizes of interest to quilters.

PICK-A-PRIZE

Our Redwork Club meets monthly with about 40 members. Each month the club leader puts together kits for each member.  Members eagerly await each month’s projects and the sharing of their completed works.

 

Each year we sponsor a tea, both as a fundraiser and as a social event.  We have wonderful food, entertainment, and raffle baskets.  See our Gallery page for some photos from a previous Victorian Tea.

UFO CHALLENGE

Participating members submit a list of 10 UFOs (unfinished projects), in any order.  A number is drawn, which represents the number on each participant’s list that she is challenged to finish by the deadline, which is usually 2-3 months away.  Those completing their UFO by the deadline are eligible for prizes.
