Great Lakes Heritage Quilters

Welcome to the GLHQ Web Site!

We are an evening guild from the Detroit, Michigan suburb of Bloomfield Hills. GLHQ was organized in 1992, and is currently 140 members strong. Our purpose is to promote cooperation and the interchange of ideas, to stimulate an interest in quilting, to present quilt-related educational programs, and to engage in charitable projects.

What's New? -March 2008

Jo Morton workshop is taking place next month, and there are still spots available, HOWEVER, the announcement has also been sent to several Jo Morton clubs and other guilds. If you would like to take the workshop, the time to register is NOW!

Picasa Web Site for GLHQ Photos (http://picasaweb.google.com/GreatLakesHeritageQuilters). This format allows pictures to be posted very quickly (no more cropping and resizing and organzing in tables). Also, photos can be dowloaded and saved or printed.

Photos from Show and Tell (October through January) and Mystery Quilt Day have been posted.

A little bit about us

At each of our meetings except December and June, we have our featured speaker, followed by refreshments, and then a business meeting. Clink the link on the left for our speaker schedule.

During the meeting we may have a fat quarter lottery, show & tell, door prizes, and a theme fabric swap. We have a lending library with lots of books and magazines, which is available for use by members.

Members receive monthly newsletters.

Quilters of all ages and experience levels are welcomed! Bring a cup if you want to help us stay 'green', or we'll have cups for you to use.
