The Guild will offer a chance for you to become motivated and stimulated in the art of quilting.  It is also an opportunity once a month to meet, make new friends, and to socialize with others as excited and interested in this craft as you are.  Most meetings are devoted to a special program.  Sometimes we are able to bring in a nationally known quilter. 
 
The Guild offers other opportunities also.

Show and Tell - - -
You will enjoy Show and Tell at each meeting.  We invite you to bring your old quilts, new quilts, or projects that you have just begun, to share with us at Show and Tell.  If you have had an experience with quilting while traveling or just have something interesting to tell us about, please share this at Show and Tell.

Service Projects - - -
The Kansas Capital Quilters Guild participates in many service projects throughout the year that benefit our community.  We encourage members to donate baby quilts for local hospitals, make mini quilts for the Midland Hospice organization, and lap quilts for the VA hospital and palliative care.

Quilt Challenge - - -
Each year a person volunteers an idea to “challenge” our creativity.  Details and rules are announced in February and the project is due at our June meeting.  Members vote on the projects and a ribbon is awarded to the top three.

Parties - - -
Did someone say "party"?  Yes, we have two parties a year.  One is our big birthday party in July, and the other is our Christmas party in December.  Both are potluck and we are very lucky to have so many good cooks!  There are crazy games, socializing, and prizes.  These are parties the devoted quilter should never miss.

Guild Facebook Page - - -
The Guild has a private Facebook page only accessible to current members -- "KS Capital Quilters Guild (NEW)".  Please ask to join to see what members share.

Name Tags - - -
Members are encouraged to make a name tag and wear it to all meetings so other members can get to know you.  Members who wear a name tag are eligible for door prizes.  If your name is drawn, you can pick a prize and share a sewing tip.

Workshops - - -
What about learning new techniques?  The Guild offers mini-workshops at various times during the year.  Some workshops are free, but others may involve a nominal fee.  We have learned everything from basic quilting to design.  And, these workshops are usually taught by members.  If you have a special technique to share at a workshop, please contact the program chairperson.  We would be glad to have you help out. 

We also have workshops with the Program Speakers several times during the year.  These workshops are planned by the Program Chair on a variety of interesting topics.  These are a hands-on approach to learn with the best teachers/speakers available.


Quilt Show or Auction - - -
The Kansas Capital Quilters Guild hosts a quilt show or auction -- our one big fundraising project for the year.  The proceeds raised from these events allow the guild to bring in guest speakers and special programs throughout the year.  The show occurs on a weekend and consists of Quilt displays, Viewers’ Choice judging, the Mini Quilt Silent Auction, the Guild Boutique, and many local vendor booths.  There are many ways to be involved in the show -- displaying a quilt, donating items to the boutique shop, or volunteering during the show.  The auction includes items donated by guild members and is held during a monthly meeting.

Education Quilt - - -
​Each year a member volunteers to make a wall-size or lap-size quilt.  This quilt is raffled off at the Christmas Party in December and the proceeds are used to fund education opportunities for our members.

Grapevine Groups - - -
Grapevine Groups are smaller groups of guild members that meet during the month at various locations throughout Topeka.  Grapevine groups provide an opportunity to meet and get to know other guild members that are in your area, visit, or work on special projects in a smaller setting.  Contact the Vice President for groups that are taking members.
​

So, come to guild, make new friends, and have a great time quilting.
