Meetings 

Meetings  are held on the third Wednesday of each month at the Danville Congregational Church, 989 San Ramon Valley Boulevard, Danville, California.  Between 7:00 pm. and 7:30 pm  members have the opportunity to look through the Guild Library, look over and turn in contributions to the Block of the Month, pay dues, buy raffle tickets, enjoy a refreshment and socialize.  We often have a visiting guild showing their opportunity quilt and selling tickets.  Our meeting starts at 7:30 pm with announcements, and committee reports.  Just prior to our evening's program is Bring and Brag, which is each member's opportunity to share completed projects, or share a latest quilt find.

Block of the Month

Members are invited to join in making as many blocks as they choose each month, following the instructions printed in the monthly newsletter.  The Block of the Month Coordinator collects the blocks at the designated membership meeting and displays them for members to view.  Members' names go into a basket for each block that is brought. During the meeting one name is drawn as the winner of all the blocks.  At  the discretion of the Coordinator, more than one winner may be drawn depending on the number of blocks entered.
