Description

The guild's primary goals are to promote and encourage the knowledge of quilt making as an art and a craft, to study its history as an integral part of our past, and to promote friendship through shared activities. Members meet the first Tuesday of each month at Messiah Lutheran Church, at the intersection of Papermill Drive and Kingston Pike in Knoxville. A 6:30 p.m. social time precedes the formal meeting, which begins at 7 p.m. Guild activities include an annual quilt show and competition, workshops, block drawings, exhibits, and quilts made for Quilts of Valor and other charitable organizations. The guild's more than 100 members are as diverse as the quilts they love -- traditional and art quilts, complex and minimalist modern designs, miniatures and bed-sized and hand or machine stitched.
