Periodically there are additional activities offered by the guild. For instance, the Guild Challenge in March, the Quilt Auction in October, and the Little Red Hen at a guild meeting.
A challenge is always fun. You never know what our guild members will dream up next, but it is always worth finding out! The 2010 challenge fabrics were silver and gray for a "Silver Lining" theme and the entries were fabulous. We're looking forward to seeing what the 2012 challenge will bring. Pictures of the 2010 challenge quilts are arriving soon.
Up Coming events
Community Education 2010
The goal of Community Education is to promote the art and history of quilting. This year looks like a busy one!
Our members will be displaying quilts at Heritage Hill Park in Lake Forest to celebrate each of the Park’s major events:
June : Rancho Fiesta Days
October : Autumn Harvest Festival
December : Victorian Christmas
December : Candlelight Tour
Our day at the Orange County Fair will be in July. We will have a booth in the Home Arts Building and be presenting a trunk show on stage between 2 and 3 in the afternoon. It’s always an invigorating day, showing people some of the projects we work on, especially our philanthropy work.
We look forward to this active year and displaying our fabulous work.
