They host weekly, virtual presentations or panel discussions by quilt and textile artists. Pre-register to view live at: https://www.internationalquiltmuseum.org/textile-talks.

Vickie Johnson, Superintendent Quilt & Textile Division, is eager for all our quilt members to enter their quilts. The fair runs from July 21-25, 2021. She needs volunteers on Monday and Tuesday, July 19-20. She'll need a scribe to help the judge while judging. Building sitters are also required and Vicki will set up a schedule for sign-ups as we get closer to the date. If anyone wants to sign up now, they can reach Vicki at Lazyjfour@yahoo.com or call her at 406-570-0624.

The fair is featuring the 56 County Quilt Contest again. If you have friends in other counties, please let them know so they may enter. Wouldn't if be fun to have a quilt from every county this year!

Planning Ahead? This show was canceled for 2020 but plan to enter for 2021--last Saturday in July. If you made a quilt, no worries, the sunflowers won't wilt.

The club usually meets at the Sourdough Fire Department, 4541 S. 3rd, Bozeman, on the first Monday of every month (unless holidays, etc. dictate otherwise). However, all in person is on hold until further notice. Check the Guild Calendar. Bring your handwork of any type and join your "sisters in stitches"! Questions?
