LOTTERY BLOCKS
NEW! >>>>  The September lottery block is an 8-inch (finished size) Evening Star block done in two different Civil War reproduction fabrics.  The background can be an off-white, a shirting... or ANY other civil war/reproduction fabric (red, yellow, blue, green... whatever you wish!).  How does the lottery work?  Make two blocks.  One goes into the lottery; the other goes to the guild for the August 2011 auction.  For each two blocks you make, you get one chance to win all the blocks in the lottery set.  The more you make, the greater your chance to win - and the guild block set raises funds that help pay for our speakers.  For instructions on making the lottery blocks due at the September guild meeting, click here.

ULTIMATE GUILD CHALLENGE
NEW! >>>>  In 2010, our guild entered the American Quilters Society's Ultimate Guild Challenge.  The guild's challenge required entrants to make a quilt that incorporated the name of a season somewhere on the quilt and measured approximately 40 by 52".  Eight quilts were chosen by Judge Winnie F to go forward for judging as a set; the guild won third place.  To see our winning entry quilts, click here.
 
ANNUAL GUILD AUCTION
Our annual auction was held on August 16 and was very successful.  Many thanks go to those who attended and who purchased items.  The income from the auction supports programs throughout the year.
