Country Crossroads Quilt Guild to meet June 17

FORRESTON – The Country Crossroads Quilt Guild will present Lori Dickman, an educator, author and pattern designer, as a speaker at the Country Crossroads Quilt Guild meeting Monday, June 17.

Playing with fabric and color as well as teaching has been Dickman’s passion for more than 45 years. The art of “making” has been a wonderful creative journey for her. Her desire is to inspire others to learn to love the art of quilt-making as much as she does. Her lecture is titled “Speedy Solutions to Cut/Organize Your Stash.” The program will be followed by refreshments, a business meeting and Show ‘n Tell.

Guild meetings are held at 7 p.m. the third Monday of each month (except December) at Forreston Grove Church, 7246 Freeport Road, Forreston, with ample time to meet and greet members before the meeting.

Visitors are welcome, but a fee of $5 is accepted at the door. Membership dues are $20.
