GREATER HARTFORD QUILT GUILD
Welcome to the Greater Hartford Quilt Guild!
|
We are a group that shares a strong common thread – an interest in quilt making and all the art, design, color and fabric that this encompasses. We come from different experiences but share this common thread that gathers us together. |
As a guild, we combine our talents in many community projects, learn and share through programs and workshops and go on quilt retreats.
We encourage and are inspired by each other, whether a longtime or beginner quilter.
Members enjoy the flexibility of being an independent member or joining one or more local chapters which meet monthly in surrounding towns, with their own officers, treasury, programs, charity projects, and show and tell.
If you are interested in joining GHQG, go to the Membership page to print out an application.
If you are interested in joining a chapter or would like more information about meeting details, please visit the Chapters pages (see menu above).
