    Belknap Mill Welcomes BMQG

    Our Guild is now an “Industrial Educator” for the Belknap Mill.  This means that we have formed a partnership with the Mill, and will hold all of our meetings, Sit & Sews, and in-person classes at the Mill.  They have refurbished the third floor, and it is beautiful.  There is an elevator, a kitchenette, hardwood floors, a countless number of electrical outlets, plenty of lighting, a built-in sound system, and lots of furniture.  We will continue to work with the Mill to offer great programming for the Lakes Region.  It is a distinct pleasure to be “going home,” back to the location of our very first meetings in 1978.  We look forward to a great partnership. ​

  • Fund Raising Quilt

    Each year the guild creates a queen size quilt to be raffled off at the annual quilt show. This is a group effort with members making individual blocks at a sit & sew Guild meeting. The quilt is assembled and quilted by Guild members. Raffle tickets are sold throughout the summer and fall with the drawing in the fall. These funds, along with the Quilt Show revenues, are used for our charitable funding both locally and to the NE Quilt Museum in Lowell, MA.​
    Congratulations to Jody Saulnier for winning this GORGEOUS quilt! 

    Stay tuned for the 2022 Raffle Quilt
