Austin Area Quilt Guild upcoming events

May MORNING Meeting: Make, Learn, Share! (May 04, 2026)

Mon, 04 May 2026 14:00:00 GMT

Show Me What You Know
Doors open at 9:00am; meeting begins at 9:45am.

Join the incredible AAQG Guild Members at the Maker's Table!

Ever wish you could peek over a master quilter's shoulder and ask all the questions? Now you can.

Join us for a hands-on learning event where our most talented guild members open up their toolboxes and share what they know — through live demonstrations, tips, techniques, and make-and-take stations designed to spark your creativity and build your skills.

With 5–6 interactive stations, you set the pace. Stop, watch, try, learn, and move on when you're ready.

Here's the secret: our morning and evening meetings will each feature different demonstrations — so there's good reason to come back for both. Double the learning, double the fun.

Whether you're a seasoned quilter or still finding your groove, this is your invitation to learn something new from the talented hands right in your own guild.

Come curious. Leave inspired.

In-person meeting location: Westminster Presbyterian Church, 3208 Exposition Blvd, Austin, TX 78703

Please bring your Show 'n Tell pieces to share at the meeting and don't forget about the FREE Table!
