10 x 5  - Presentations!

This month, we’re in for a surprise and a treat!  We'll have FIVE of our own members will tell their quilting stories; how they started, what they’ve accomplished, and how they’ve grown in the hobby.  Each presenter will speak for TEN minutes and show examples during their talk.   Thus, 10 by 5! 

We will enjoy a diversity of experiences and projects, and perhaps learn something unexpected about our quilting friends!

Garage Sale & Social

Back in person finally, we are having a long-delayed Garage Sale, with Social.  If you need more space in your sewing area, and you have quilting items you no longer need or want … here’s the opportunity to find them new homes, and earn $$$.  You can sort out quilting items, fabric, kits, tools, and notions, during the summer, and bring them for September.

Purchases at the Sale will be cash only.  Sellers would appreciate small or exact change.

You rent a table to display your items.  Cost is $5 per table; you may share a table with a friend.  Deadline for registration is Sept 1, 2023.  To book your Sale table, click the blue Register button.
