Members' Meetings

The January 31, 2026, Members’ Meeting guest speakers will be a collaboration of members from Art Quilts Maine and Crazy Quilters of Maine. A variety of stations surrounding the room will highlight members’ techniques and passions. Embroidery is the highlight from the Crazy Quilters of Maine. There will also be examples of how to add beads, 3D flowers from ruching, Chicken Scratch, Braille Embroidery with ½ pearls, covered buttons, big stitch, thread painting, couching, and more. Have you ever wondered how to add any of these techniques to your quilted projects to highlight and enhance their appearance? Come find out how in January.

The PTQG Members Meeting will be held Saturday,  May 2nd  at 10:00 a.m. Location:  Hope Baptist Church, 728 Western Avenue, Manchester, Maine There will be a cookie swap, bring your favorite cookie to share. Our guest speaker is Bettina Havig,  who will share a talk exploring the traditions of English, Welsh, and Irish quilts all of which are the predecessors of our American quilt traditions. This program is part travel log, part quilt show, and part personal exploration into the modern-day quilts of the UK and Ireland.  Along with the business meeting, there will be door prizes.  Make sure you bring your lunch and drink!
