Heritage Quilters of South Suburbia

We encourage all members to particpate in guild activites and guild meetings.  If you have something you want to present to the members at a meeting, please contact the President or a board member first so that we can present it to the board and have it added to the guild meeting agenda.

Library

Our library is for our members who have the privilege of checking out quilting related books, magazines and videos for one month. A late fee will be charged per book, per month. New books and magazines are added monthly.

Batting  Sale

The guild will no longer be selling batting. 

Used Book/Pattern Sale

We are no longer doing the used book and pattern sale, unless we get someone to take the position.  We are asking that members collect their books and patterns or they will be donated to charity.

Door Prizes

There are door prize drawings at each guild meeting. All members are eligible for the door prize drawing if they are wearing their member’s badge and/or nametag. One prize per member per year.

Show and Tell

There is a “Show & Tell” time at each meeting. Members may bring their projects to share with the guild.

Newsletter                                                                                                                                                                     

The Laurel Star is published five times per year (Sept/Oct, Nov/Dec, Jan/Feb, Mar/Apr, May/June). New members will have their names added to the mailing list and their name and information will be included in the next newsletter in order to keep our directory current. Members are encouraged to submit items of interest to the newsletter chairperson. Deadline for articles is usually the guild meeting prior to publication of the next edition.

Members can choose to receive their newsletter by email in PDF format by choosing the option when joining, renewing membership, or anytime by contacting the newsletter chairperson.

Quilt Show and Raffle



Our guild presents a quilt show when possible. The show features over 200 quilts made by our members. We also have a boutique of hand-made items for sale, small quilt sale, vendor mall, door prizes, featured quilter and a raffle for a full-size hand-made quilt.

Bus Trip

During the years we do not have a quilt show we sponsor a bus trip to various regions of the United States, visiting areas that feature unique quilt shops as well as other shopping and sight seeing that would be of interest to our members.
