Wednesday Weekly                                                                            An informal weekly Sewing Bee meets on Wednesdays  from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM in the Annex.(Except for July and August) Bring your own project, your lunch, and enjoy the company of other quilters! 

Open Sew Saturday                                                                         Bring what ever you are working on.  We meet from 10:00-3:00 PM in the Annex.  We generally work on our own projects, help each other pin quilts, solve problems, and spend time discussing the latest quilting techniques and fabrics.  This is a great time to get help as well as socialize with other quilters from the guild.  We eat lunch, plan informal shopping trips and have a good time. Everyone from beginners to teachers come and are welcome.

Project Pillowcases                                                                            This group makes simple pillowcases for kids with cancer.  All you need is two cordinating fabrics, one for the case and one for the band.  We collect fabric donations, cut the cases and meet about once a month to sew them.  We have a great time and as always are looking forward to meeting you there.

For general questions and information on programs email RRQ President Linda Eaves at rrqpres@comcast.net

The projects are simple and fun. We share ideas, skills and fabric, while we create blocks for ourselves as well as some to be used in quilts for the RRQ "Giving Closet."
