Meetings
Monthly meetings are where we get together for learning, creativity and community!
October 9, 2024
Our guest speaker for October is Connie Saylor, who comes to us from Eugene, Oregon. Connie has been sewing since she was young. She fell in love with Hawaiian
quilting after meeting Nancy Lee Chong in 2006. They became good friends and in 2015, Connie and her husband purchased Pacific Rim Quilt Company. They enjoyed traveling and promoting the business for eight years before selling the business last February. Since then, Connie has continued to teach and share her love of Hawaiian quilting. She looks forward to sharing her quilts and knowledge with all of us at her trunk show.At the Meeting
Orange Grove Quilters Guild is one of the few Southern California quilt guilds with daytime meetings. About 100 of us gather on the second Wednesday of the month to share our quilts and learn more about quilting. This is the typical meeting agenda:
8:30 a.m. Doors open at the Elks lodge. Members help themselves to coffee, tea and light snacks while checking in on friends and the latest Guild activities. This is a good time to turn in blocks for the BOM challenge, browse donated fabric and magazines for sale, sign up for a workshop or pick up a Philanthropy project to work on at home.
9:30 a.m. The Guild President opens the meeting and goes over the latest news. Committee chairs make their reports and then it's time for Show and Tell, where members share their quilt creations. More quilts are on display in the parade of Philanthropy quilts that are ready for donation.
After a short break, it's time for learning. The Guild hosts a variety of speakers throughout the year. Typically, the instructor for that month's workshop will be the featured speaker.
11:30 a.m. The meeting adjourns. Guild members are welcome to purchase lunch in the Elk's Lodge dining room.
