Meetings

We hold six guild meetings during the year on the third Tuesday of January, March, May, July, September, and October. Meetings start at 6:30 PM in University City, Missouri. On the other months, we may have social meetings in a member’s home. We do not meet in November and December.

We invite everyone, quilters and non-quilters alike, to join us. Each programs vary with presenters of diverse quilting topics. And always a great members’ show-and-tell.

Piecing Group

The Piecing Group is a sub-group of the guild that focuses on hand piecing quilt blocks. They meet on the first Tuesday evening of each month in a different home (except January) when a member distributes unpieced blocks of their own chosen design. The other members sew the blocks together over the next month. Each member of the group distributes their blocks every eighteen months.
The membership of this group is limited to 18. A waiting list is maintained when necessary.

Community Service

As our guild’s community service project, the members of Circle in the Square Quilters make and donate baby quilts to Operation Shower. Operation Shower hosts joyful baby showers for military families across the country holds to ease the stress of deployment. Their baby showers provide expectant military families with high quality products for their babies while recognizing all that they do for our country.
