Secret Santa Exchange and 2022 Quilt Challenge Reveal

December’s “program” is something everyone truly anticipates: the Secret Santa Exchange! This year's response was overwhelming, with 40 members signing up to participate. Thanks to Lisa Lawton’s exquisite coordination, names were exchanged, and you started on your charge of creating the perfect gift for your recipient! Head Elf Lisa will MC the gift exchange. If past years are any indication, we’ll all be treated to a show of innovative gifts – that may give you some ideas for your family’s Christmas gifts too. Please mark your calendar for this festive gathering. Special treats will be provided for all attendees.

Then, way back in January of this year, we challenged Guild members to use a colorful flowered fabric to create their very own quilted project. At the February meeting, fifteen members joined the Challenge and received their fabric and “rules” for the Challenge. Now is the time for the BIG REVEAL of their creations!

Join us to see what our fellow members have designed. Not only will you see their final product, but they will also share information about their creative process. Perhaps you will get some ideas from their inspirations for a project of your own.

Sew Much More page has been updated with an Exciting Opportunity with the Bozeman Art Museum!
