QUILT SHOW, LIBRARY

AND MINI-MART

Q.U.I.L.T., Inc. has presented

biennial quilt shows since 1988

to showcase the talents of our

members and share information

about quilting. Many members

volunteer to work on the show

and find it fun and rewarding.

The extensive library of the guild

includes stencils, videos, and

many new quilting books, as well

as old “classics.” Members may

borrow up to three items at a

time (up to six over the summer),

due back at the next meeting.

Members donate quilt-related

items to be sold at the

fundraising and mini-mart table

at the monthly meetings. This

allows members to recycle items

they no longer need, and the

guild benefits from the proceeds.

MEMBERSHIP

Membership is open to anyone

interested in quilting. Payment of

$30.00 dues entitles members to

voting privileges, newsletter

subscription, use of the library, access

to workshops, discounts at some fabric

stores, and special privileges when they

arise. Members are encouraged to join

a number of active committees such as

service, fundraisers, newsletter, and

Quilt Show.

SERVICE PROJECTS

Q.U.I.L.T., Inc. is a non-profit

organization with on-going service

projects. Members under the guidance

of the Service Committee have made

many quilts that have been donated to

community organizations that serve

those who would enjoy a comforting

quilt. Placemats are also quilted by

members and donated to organizations.

A beautiful raffle quilt is created by

members for the guild’s quilt show.
