Friendship Groups

Enjoying Colleagues in a Small Group

Joining a friendship group provides an opportunity to get to know other quilters.  Some say that their friendship group is the heart of their Guild experience!  Our groups vary in size, schedule, and agenda.  Activities might include collaborating on a group quilt, learning something new, or just visiting over handwork.    

If you are looking for a group or thinking about starting one, use our contact form; we will put you in touch with our Friendship Group Coordinator or with the convener of the group you are interested in.  If a group is accepting new members, just drop in and see if you like it.

If you have a question about the friendship groups, use the Contact Us page to reach out.
