Boutique
Guild members and friends have made a large number of beautiful things that will be for sale. They include aprons, potholders, table runners, microwave-safe bowl holders. Each item is unique and locally-made. All proceeds go to the Guild.
Member sales table
This is a sales area where guild members and friends sell quilt-related items they no longer use. There will be fabric, quilt magazines and books, patterns, rulers, sewing tools, and more. Items are “priced to sell.” A portion of the proceeds goes to the Guild.
