Bag Making Basics
We will be having a bag making workshop led by member Alison Gurganus on Saturday, September 21st from 9:30am – 2:00pm.
In this workshop, you will learn how to install a zipper, work with different types of interfacing, use vinyl, and how to work with piping.

2020 Birthday Club
We will be running our guild birthday club again this upcoming year. Birthday club sign ups will be taking place at the August and September guild meetings. At the October meeting, you will receive your group members information and their FQ requests. You will bring back your group’s FQs in a designated bag at the November meeting. Then, on your birthday month in 2020, you’ll receive a bag of FQs from each member of your group!
If you wish to join in on the birthday club, you will just need to fill out the short form at a guild meeting. As part of the birthday club, you will be in a group of 12 individuals and on your birthday month, you will receive a bag of fat quarters based on your indicated likes from the sign up form.
*It’s fun and easy – shop your stash or purchase to meet your members wishes, and of course keep it modern.*
