  "Quilting Adventures Near and Far"

  MAY GUILD MEETING

  Thursday, May 14

  Do you love to travel as much as you love to quilt?

  When you glance through a Quilters Travel Website and see titles like “Italian Fabrics and Flavors” or Canyonland Quilts”, do your creative juices start moving? Anytime I see something related to the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show…or …take a Quilt Vacation…my home heart starts to beat a little slower as I begin to dream.

  Well, summon your quilting spirit and come hear about quilting journeys near and far. We’ll explore international quilting tours as well as here in the States. And we may even get a peek at potential trip to our Colorado Shop Hops or an 8 hour trip to the International Quilt Museum in Nebraska or a virtual trip through Quilt Folks.

  We’ll have representatives of a Quilt Travel Company or two join us. And ACQ member, Valerie Mishek, will share about her 14 day Quilt Cruise to Hawaii.

  So…get your passport renewed and get ready…for a Quilting Adventure.

  "Quilt Scouts: Past, Present, and Future"

  JUNE GUILD MEETING

  Thursday, June 11th

  Quilt Scouts started as a simple idea: what if learning new quilting skills felt a little more like going on an adventure? In this talk, Megan will share the origin story of Quilt Scouts, how the idea came to life, and what the past two years of building this creative community have looked like behind the scenes. She’ll also give a peek at what Quilt Scouts looks like today—from badges and projects to the growing network of Base Camps and members around the country. Along the way, Megan will share what she’s learned, where the trail is headed next, and a few of the big ideas she's dreaming up for the future.

Through patterns, tutorials, events, and a growing network of local Base Camps hosted by quilt shops, she encourages quilters to try new techniques and celebrate the journey of learning.

The presentation will conclude with time for questions, giving members a chance to learn even more.
