Melbourne Modern Quilt Guild members meet up regularly for sewing, learning and skill sharing.
Our Sit and Sew Days are just that. Come, join with your guild friends, sit and sew, share, show off your work and enjoy. Occasionally we even have a Super Sit and Sew Day – up to 11 hours of fun!
The Sewcial Evenings are our chance to host guest lecturers, trunk shows, or shorter, educational workshops.
Visitors are welcome to join us at our events, except those listed as Members only, on two occasions before we ask that you join the guild.
Bookings are required for all events and open up on the 1st day of the month prior. We charge a small fee to cover costs for venue hire, and it’s charged at the time of booking.
