Fallbrook Quilt Guild meetings are held the first Thursday of every month at the

Fallbrook Community Center, 341 Heald Lane, Fallbrook, California. Guests are welcome
at any of our meetings.

The business meeting starts at 6:30 p.m., followed by a 20-30 minute social break, except for the June and December meetings, which start at 6:00 p.m. Refreshments are served at the break and there are opportunities to purchase raffle tickets, check books/magazines out from the library, pick up a charity quilt package, or sign up for the Saturday workshop.

Be sure to wear your name tag and sign in at the Membership/Welcome table.

Members are responsible for bringing a door prize in their birthday month. Door prizes should be quilting or sewing related items.

The program follows the break. Listed below is the meeting schedule.
