AMQG's Book Club!

We want to celebrate all the authors that have put SEW much into our creative community!

Bring a book that has inspired your quilty journey. If you have something you made from the book (or was inspired to make because of the book) please come show it off!

This can be a great book on scrappy quilts, an art book that gives you color inspiration, a book that got you to look at your creativity in a new light, or even a book that moved you to make a tribute piece about.

Hopefully, your TBR list will have a some great new additions.

Each meeting includes:

Guild business - Updates on what's going on, what's coming up, and how members can get involved!
Programming - Unique to each month, our VP of Programming has something fun planned from sew-ins to sew-lebrities and other cool content!
