Fairfield Fan-Tastic Quilt Guild
The Fairfield Fan-Tastic Quilt Guild started
about eight years ago, and enrolled about 100 members in
the first year.
Members of the Fairfield guild come from all corners of the
United States and other countries. This makes this group so
unique. Their programs are very different. They usually have
a quilt block pattern for each month.
The Fan-Tastic Quilters have made charity quilts that
go to the Hospice, The Plateau Pregnancy Center, and House of Hope
and to the Veterans Hospital.
Once a year, the guild is organizing a Back to School event when
classes are taught on different quilt subjects. The annual Tea and
Auction is to raise money for speakers and workshops. Several of
the quilter ladies have shown quilts at AQUS shows.
The guild meets at the Fairfield United Methodist Church Fellowship
Hall. Call Charlotte Plummer at 931-484-8191 for more information.
Jamestown Sew Sweet Quilters
In Jamestown, Tennessee, a group of ladies
meets to share their love and knowledge of quilting every
other Monday afternoon in Jamestown First Baptist Church.
Their name, Sew Sweet Quilters, denotes their love for
desserts and stitching. Eileen Powell has been with the
group since the beginning and acts as chairperson. She is an
accomplished quilter and loves to share her knowledge with
the group. The group has been meeting for six years. They
participate in the Jamestown Senior Center Quilt Show. Their
ages vary from 30 to 80 years but their common interest is a
strong bond.
