Monthly Meetings 

We generally meet on the 4th Monday of the month, alternating mornings and evenings. We meet in person in January, April, July and December, and on Zoom other months.

Each of our meetings features a special guest speaker. We bring in well-known quilters and textile artists from across the world to share their techniques and inspiration with us. This is a great way to get new, exciting ideas for revitalizing your quilt projects.

Guests are welcome to attend our monthly meetings and lectures with these amazing guest speakers. The fee for non-members is $10.00, please click through below to register for the meeting, once confirmed you will be sent the link to join the Zoom meeting. Or consider joining our organization, for only $55 for the entire year.
