Hi Quilters,

September is here already -- can cooler weather be far behind? Have you finished some UFOs over the summer? I only have 1 or 2 left! This month we will be starting to sew items for the 2018 Quilting in Paradise Quilt Show boutique. I hope that if you can't attend the sew in, you can make something at home.

Enjoy your Labor Day,

Cathy​

Mission Statement:  
The purpose of our club is to promote interest, appreciation, enjoyment, and knowledge of quilting in every aspect as an art form and a craft; as well as to encourage high standards of technique and design along with preserving our quilt-making heritage and traditions. The club also assists our surrounding communities by utilizing the talents of our members with various ongoing charitable works and services. Membership is open to anyone who enjoys quilting, sewing, and fellowship! 

Our History:
The Crazy Quilters Club was the brainchild of Dolores Knight. She and Lorene Gruber formed the club when they met at Dolores' home with six other women as a daytime quilting group. "We will be the Crazy Quilters" they decided, and they voted on that name. Peggy Armour and Barbara Hill volunteered to find a permanent meeting place. They would meet on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month, except for holidays. Attending the first meeting were: Dolores Knight, Lorene Gruber, Peggy Armour, Mary Schroeder, Jeanne Taxacher, Barbara Hill, Peggy VanCott, and Betty Wilson.

The second meeting was held at Lorene Gruber's home. They welcomed two new members that day: Andrea Wallman and Mary Wheeler. Peggy Armour reported the meetings would be held at the PSL Library. The members agreed that one meeting per month would be a program to share their diverse talents. The others would be for group projects. 

The first official meeting was January 12, 1994, with the election of officers, the collection of dues, and planning of future projects. Thirteen charter members attending were: Dolores Knight, Lorene Gruber, Doris Ingalls, Theresa Perry, Mary Wheeler, Peggy Armour, Peggy VanCott, Mary Schroeder, Barbara Hill, Jeanne Taxacher, Andrea Wallman, Betty Wilson, and Joan Anderson. 

Meetings are held every Wednesday.  Club activities include community service, workshops, and demonstrations where quilting skills are perfected. We have a "Show & Tell" at meetings, where our members show off the beautiful quilts and other items they have made.  Quilt shows are held every two years.
