Meetings

Note that in December, we meet on the first Wednesday of the month.

Our December meeting will be a celebration of the Holiday Season. Guild members are invited to bring holiday quilts for Show and Tell. The meeting will also feature seasonal entertainment.

The Guild is again asking members to provide gifts to the Marine families stationed at Camp Pendleton. Many of the Marines will not be able to be home with their families and our hope is to help make the Holidays a little happier for them. Donations will be picked up at our December meeting. Both gifts and gift cards are appreciate!

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.
