Our monthly programs bring quilters together to learn from national speakers, local artisans and members to share their work. Most events are in-person as well as on ZOOM (unless otherwise noted).

The guild offers monthly programs and many workshops throughout the year.

Contact programs@qgplano.org for any other questions or to suggest upcoming speakers.

Programs are always free for QGP members. A $5 charge will be assessed to non-members when we host a national speaker.

Sylvia Schaefer with Flying Parrot Quilts

Lecture: Designing with Negative Space

Many quilters enjoy the modern aesthetic but are overwhelmed when considering designing their own quilt.  This lecture gives you concrete step-by-step ideas on how to begin with a traditional quilt block and then alter it to incorporate negative space (also known as background area).

Come join us at our Annual Guild Christmas Celebration filled with, food, fun and friendships!

Sherry Mark – Loft Supply

Lecture: All About Batting

Owner Sherry Mark strongly believes that batting is an important, yet often overlooked and undervalued, component of your quilting project. After all, your batting gives your quilt its personality. It determines the way a quilt looks and feels, its weight, warmth and thickness, and perhaps most importantly, its longevity. At Loft Supply, we value the art of quilting, and want to do our part to ensure that your finished product looks and feels as special as the effort you put into your beautiful creation.

Lecture: Those Fabulous Featherweights 

Nova’s Mission Statement:

Preserving our quilting heritage is extremely important to me.  My purpose is to present our quilting history in an informative, engaging and fun manner.  I want to help owners preserve their Singer Featherweight sewing machines and keep them sewing for generations to come through education and providing quality parts, products and services for their machines.
