Notes From The Library
Do you have a quilting book you want to donate? Or is there a book you want to recommend our librarian purchase to add to our collection? If so, contact our librarian, Jenny Lane at jennylane@windstream.net. Search FPQG's library collection from our 2008 catalogue listing by author or title.

Name Tag Drawing
The Guild encourages each member to make a quilted name tag based on our "house" logo and to wear it to the meeting each month. This helps others know who you are and learn your name. Before each meeting, everyone wearing a nametag enters their name in a drawing for items donated by the Guild or local retailers.
