Library

Welcome back to another great year of quilting and reading!

Our Guild Library offers a large selection of books and magazines full of great quilt ideas and technique information. You can borrow these for a month; just sign the lending binder and return and sign your item back in the next month.

Each month we will also have a tote of books and magazines for sale. Money raised goes toward purchasing new books and magazines. Books sell for $1 and magazines for $.25. Donations of recent magazines are welcome and will be offered for sale at each meeting.

Every month we have our popular “guess the number of pages in the book” contest and the quilter who has the closest guess wins the book!

Our library stock was sorted and re-organized over the summer, so as you browse through our wondrously varied selection, please help us keep them orderly. You are sure to find something to tempt you into a new project!

A Quick and Easy Block Tool written by Connie Chunn is the new book of the month, 110 Quilt blocks in 5 sizes. 

A member donated two novels The Dressmaker of Khalid Khana  by Gayle Tzemach and  The Union Quilters by Jennifer Chiaverini.  I read “The Dressmaker of Khalid Khana”. A good read about a family of girls who survive the Taliban rule in the late 90's by turning their home into a dressmakers shop, hiring many local women and girls and risking their lives for the good of all.
