SKILL BUILDING PROGRAM:
Based on member survey results, quarterly Skill Building events will be held, in addition to our Program Speaker workshops and Discovery Days. The new Skill Building program won’t necessarily be project oriented, although projects might be used to teach or review particular skills. There will be some classes and some topics will be covered with demos before a general meeting. The next quarterly topic will be Binding, on May 30 at the Auburn Veterans Memorial Hall. More information is on the Activities page.
QOV PROJECT FOR 2027:
We are challenging members to make Quilts of Valor (QOV) quilts for a special display at our 2027 Quilt Show. The guild may be able to support your efforts by providing patterns and possibly some fabrics or panels. See our Quilts of Valor section for the timeline and more information, including the requirements for a QOV and guidelines for the project.
