Membership

"Quilts have been binding women together for centuries.  Whether it be through the simple exchange of patterns or a shared bag of fabric scraps, quilting is a true community effort."
~This Old Quilt, Margaret Aldrich, Editor

Are you interested in joining the Southport Quilters Guild?  We'd love to meet you!

 

Here are a few important facts about our group:

  • Membership is open to anyone, at least 16 years of age, who is interested in the art of quilting.  

  • The Guild's year runs from May 1 through April 30.  

  • Annual dues are $20.  Renewal dues are payable at the beginning of the fiscal year.  

  • New members may join at any time.  For those joining the Guild after the month of December, dues will be reduced to half of the current membership fee. 

  • Each guild member is asked to contribute a handmade quilted item or an item made of fabric that can be sold at the Guild's primary fundraiser at the UW-Parkside Holiday Craft Fair.  Members unable to contribute an item to sell are asked to make a $25 contribution to the Guild.

  • Guild members are encouraged to participate in the Hospitality Committee once each year.

  • To help us get to know one another, new members are issued name tags.  Members are asked to wear their name tags to the meetings or pay a 25ȼ fine.
