Quilt Guilds   

Crazy Quilters
		This group of "crazies" meet at the Cookeville library (downstairs) at 7 p.m. on the first and third Thursday each month. Think you qualify?* Come and join them!      * Crazy about quilting, that is - and fun-loving too.
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.
