Our quilt show is the 2nd Saturday in October at Baker College of Cadillac from 11:00 to 4:00. We have several vendors who will be selling quilting and sewing supplies and fabrics and demonstrations that can offer you tips whether you are a novice or an experienced quilter. If you don't quilt yet, come and see if it is something that you might be interested in! And of course, don't forget that you will see many beautiful quilted projects. We usually have a theme or special showing of projects completed by the members and a featured quilter for the year. We do ask that you be a member of the guild to display at our show. If you want more information on joining our guild, click here. If you are already a member and want to fill out a entry, please click here. |

As you can see from these pictures, quilting isn't just for bedding. From the original utilitarian need to make quilts for warmth to the current trends making quilting a true art form, we try to offer the viewer a chance to see it all at our show.
Some of these jackets and purses were made in classes that were offered by the guild. Click on the large picture at left to go to our "Imaginings" page. You will find any currently planned classes and any of the group patterns that we are working on this year.
The pictures below are all the Mystery Quilt (further information is on our Imaginings page) from last year called "Not Just for Christmas". As you can see, changing the fabric colors - and even the fabrics as one of these is made from flannel - and adding embellishments such as appliqued borders can truly change the appearance of a quilt. This years Mystery Quilt "Ningaloo Blooming" can also be found on our Imaginings page. These quilts were made by guild members.
