Welcome to the MPS Quilt Guild!
Our purpose is to provide an opportunity for quilters to gather for inspiration, education, and fellowship.
The society supports and encourages individual growth in skill and craftsmanship. We celebrate quilting as a great American art form.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS! No meeting in December.
Our January General Meeting is Tuesday the 24th at 6:30 pm at the Bethel Congregational Church. Former Charter Member Terry Grant will share the story of how the Twelve by Twelve Challenge came to be. Visit her website:andsewitgoes.blogspot.com
What to bring: Your "Change" Creative Challenge Quilt. Items to donate for our Annual Auction in February. The Inspirations theme is "new skills", but feel free to bring any quilts you wish to share. Note, the November Inspiration Gallery is now available to view in the Members Only section.
Our February Annual Potluck and Vicky Fund Auction is fast approaching. You can bring your quilt or sewing related goodies, either those slightly used items you no longer need or perhaps a special project created just for the auction, to either the January or February General Meetings. Your donations are important. The Auction is our main fund-raiser to fund our national speaker programs.
