Welcome

Do you enjoy quilting and other fiber arts? Do you enjoy sharing ideas about fabrics and quilting with other quilters? If you do, then we're the quilt guild for you. South Jersey Quilters Guild is a community of kindred souls who enjoy working with fabric and being in the company of other quilters. The members of the South Jersey Quilters Guild would like to extend to you an invitation to visit, socialize, sew with us and join our guild.

The South Jersey Quilters Guild seeks to promote the work and accomplishments of our quilters and to preserve the tradition, culture, and history of quilting. The guild welcomes all who are interested in quilting. We have classes, workshops, activities and events planned for the entire year.

Our meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm at the Franklinville Community Center. Each meeting includes show and tell, thimble and postcard prizes, workshops and lively discussion of issues relevant to the quilt world in general and South Jersey quilters in particular. Beginners are welcome too, as we have members of all levels of quilting experience. Come, learn, share, enjoy.

The summer picnic has been rescheduled to July 18, 2015 - Konkerr Cancer Sew-In

Our summer picnic has been rescheduled to this coming Saturday!!! This is also the Konker Cancer Pillow-case Sew-In.

So bring your machine, your food and your appetite and join us this Saturday from 9:30 am to 2:30 pm at the Franklinville Community Center. Please remember to bring serving utensils.  We will NOT have use of a microwave so plan accordingly.

The pillowcase kits are already cut out so we will be sewing and pressing.

The Ugly Fabric Auction has been postponed to August 12.  We will hold the auction after an abbreviated business meeting.

More about the Konkerr Cancer Sew-in:  We are participating in a "Battle of the Guilds Pillowcase Challenge" in September.  The Guild that turns in the highest number of pillowcases since Jan. will receive a prize and the guild that make the most that day will also get something.  We have turned in 106 so far. We plan to have kits available.  If anyone would like to bring a camera to take pictures for our blog, that would be very much appreciated, if so, please provide them to Ruth Carman-Esser to post on the blog.
