More about the Quilters Guild of Indianapolis

Not only does QGI have that monthly evening meeting I blogged about last week, but there are also two daytime meetings. I love going to both meetings. Each group has its own Block of the Month (BOM) and its own programs.

Quilters Guild of Indianapolis North (QGIN) meets in the afternoon the first Friday of every month at the PrimeLife Enrichment Center in Carmel, Indiana, north of Indianapolis. We’ve been making the blocks in Janet Wickell’s Anniversary Sampler Quilt at About.com. Will I actually put all these blocks together into a quilt before 2013 is over?

The Out To Lunch Bunch (OTLB) meets for lunch on the fourth Thursday of the month (except November and December) at Jonathan Byrd’s Cafeteria in Greenwood, Indiana, south of Indianapolis. Did I mention it is a lunch meeting in a cafeteria? Once a month, great food and great company! It was a wonderful opportunity to sit front-and-center for a presentation of Eleanor Burns’ latest book by Pat Knoechel, Eleanor’s sister. Of course I bought a copy of the book Tales of First Ladies and Their Quilt Blocks and the Braid in a Day pattern. Will I make up the pattern or any blocks from the book soon?

Can’t wait to see what is in store with these two groups in 2013.
