  • Darting Needles hosts a quilt show bi-annually. 

  • Several smaller groups meet monthly at members' homes to work on quilting projects, share their knowledge, have
        "show and tell", and share good company among friends.

  • The guild hosts a retreat weekend in January which provides a fun weekend away from home for members to work
        on individual projects or to work on projects the retreat committee designs.

  • Darting Needles Quilt Guild maintains a library of over 350 reference books that may be checked out by members.
     


  • Our Community Involvement
    As part of our charter, Darting Needles provides quilts to local charities. There are usually two meetings per year for working on or presenting quilts made for charitable giving. Darting Needles members have provided several hundred quilts to local charities since it's inception.
