Hi Ladies, today for my Around the Net entry, I came across this site called Modern Quilt Guild through one of my favourite blogs Jackie’s Stitches – thanks Jackie. This new book is all about starting and promoting quilting in YOUR community. How to start a quilt guild and how other chapters collaborate ideas, thoughts, boards, meetings and so on. It’s an excellent resource and what a GREAT idea!!
Do you belong to a guild? If so, what it’s called and what do you LOVE about it! I belong to 2 guilds, Flying Needles I’ve been with these ladies for about 7 years and Lakeside Quilters I’ve been a guild sister for 5+ years. I LOVE being part of both of these groups. It give me a sense of community, these women have like minded ideas and goals. We’ve all come together to learn something we are passionate about and love each other’s company. If you aren’t in a guild, join one or start one:)
Here’s the branch for Houston based on this book. I’ve come across so many guild listings in Alberta that I’m trying to keep track of. If you know a new Guild in Alberta, please pass it onto me🙂
Until next time, have a happy and creative day!
Glad to have found you! Not a lot of us young quilters out there.
I’m looking to join a guild, finally, and Flying Needles is my guild of choice. Not sure if there is enough interest for the Modern Quilt Guild (which is so me). Besides, until Quilt Canada is over I’ve got no time to get in to something else. Would you be able to email me info on Flying Needles?
