Welcome To Our Guilds Very First Blog Posting!!!

Welcome to the Apple Country Quilters blog! We wanted a means of contacting and connecting with the quilting world and for the quilting world to contact and connect with us. Another goal for our blog is to let people know about our guilds activities and showcase the many talents of our members. Also important to us is having a way of keeping our members informed and having a place to share information and knowledge.

Joining the cyber age will be a real learning experience for many of our members. Until a few weeks ago, most members weren't really sure what a blog was all about and some didn't even know what a blog was. Every week at our guild meetings, we will be helping members get access to the blog and teaching them how to move around in the blog and use it's features.

OK, let's get on with the blogging!

Meet Apple Country Quilters newest member, Martha, who just joined this summer. Believe it or not, this is her very first quilt! Martha took a class at our LQS, Quilt Shop On The Square, to learn how to make this sampler quilt. This beautiful quilt is hand quilted.



Here it is on the bed.



Our next meeting will be this Tuesday, at 10:00 a.m., and will be held at the First Methodist Church in downtown Ellijay. We will be having Show, Tell, and Ask.
