Guild Meetings

We meet the third Thursday of each month from September to May at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Hooksett, NH. You are welcome to attend two meetings to help you decide if you'd like to join us!

Meetings

​Membership dues are paid annually and are $35 for the year, due by the October meeting. Anyone who joins for the first time after February 1st will pay half the annual dues and it covers membership through June. A Junior Membership (10-18) is available!

Meeting Agenda

Door opens at 6:30pm. Please check in with our membership committee. If there is a fee for a speaker, you will be asked to pay then. There is a member/non-member rate, and exact amount is very much appreciated! You will be given a door prize raffle ticket for attending, and you will get an extra ticket if you wear your name tag!


Please see the membership committee with any questions or paperwork for new members, renewals, and name tags!

​

After checking in, drop off your 2-1/2" fabric strips and get your raffle ticket(s). Raffle tickets are given for each carefully cut 2-1/2" strip of fabric (up to 7 max) in the color of the month. One luck winner takes home all the strips! Colors to be announced soon! If you are purchasing raffle tickets, they are $ for #.

​

Then you can make your way up to the Fellowship Hall, a room that is set up with our wonderful Library and a table for each of our committees. Please take a look at what they are offering! You can check out Cases for Caring, A Quilted Gift, Fabric Swap, Block of the Month, Retreats, Programing, and any Challenge and Mystery Quilt updates, plus more!

​

Our meeting starts at 7:00pm in the church sanctuary. There usually are some announcements and "guild talk", then the program is introduced for the night. After that part concludes, refreshments are provided back in the Fellowship Hall, and you have an opportunity to chat with presenters and the other guild members. After the break, we sometimes do a Show 'n Tell, where we get to Oooh and Aaah at all of our talented members' work! All skill levels welcome, please show what you've created! We end with the raffle drawings.
