Are you feeling overwhelmed with all the doings of our guild and don't know which person to ask what's this or that? Get active in a grapevine group and you'll meet and get to know other members from the guild in a smaller setting!
Grapevine groups were started to help members get to know other members. Some of the advantages to joining a grapevine group are:
It’s easier to get to know new members and what their level of experience is, since our quilt guild has grown so large.
To enable those members who want to start smaller groups to sew with, go to a quilt show, or other things you want to do together.
To get help or ideas from other members on a project you're working on.
To help you know members who you might be able to catch a ride to/from a meeting without inconveniencing them.
To work on a group project, learn a new technique, socialize, or just go out to eat.
If you are not involved in a group and would like to join one, consider contacting the members listed below.
