Creating a community of quilters to share ideas, develop skills and encourage the tradition of quilt making.

Welcome to the Common Threads Quilt Guild's website.  We are a group of people who have one thing in common--our love of quilts and the people who create them.  We would love for you to join us.  Please check out the About Us page for information on when and where we meet.

Programs and Workshops

Here is a calendar of programs and workshops that I have scheduled so far.  If you would like to sign up for a workshop, please contact Sara Kelly.  We also have a new registration form that you can print and bring to the next meeting.  The form includes all the rules for signing up and cancelling of shows.  Be advised that any guest who come to the guild meeting when we have a paid speaker will be charged a $5 entrance fee.    Here's the registration form. 

Our meetings begin at 7:00 pm on the first Thursday of each month, however we have a one hour social time before that.
