Currently, guild meetings are both in person and via Zoom. See Newsletter for Zoom link.
In-person meetings are held at Calvary United Methodist Church in Mt. Airy, Maryland. Meetings begin with a "Sewcial" at 6:30 for in-person meetings or 6:45 for Zoom meetings. The meeting starts at 7:00 and ends at 9:00.
If you have questions about any of the events listed, please contact the Vice President of Programs by clicking the button below or by emailing programs@fourcountyquilters.org
Non-members are welcome to attend guild meetings. There is a nominal fee of $5 per meeting when the guild hosts a paid speaker. Within a fiscal year (July 1-June 30), guests may join and apply guest fees to membership with a receipt showing fees paid.
This is an opportunity to share our stash with other guild members and exchange some of their beauties for ourselves. Bring your 2 ½ inch squares in bundles of 25. You can run a thread through it or place it in a baggy. There will be a sign on the piano for the exchange. We will do this for several meetings, starting in April 2022. Exchange each time or only once. Stay tuned for options on guild night!
