Meetings
Fallbrook Quilt Guild meetings are held the first Thursday of every month (except January) at the Fallbrook Community Center, 341 Heald Lane, Fallbrook, California. Guests are welcome at any of our meetings.
The meetings from April through September are night meetings: the doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the meeting starts at 6:00 p.m. The meetings from October through March are in the afternoon; the doors open at 12:30 p.m. and the meeting starts at 1:00 p.m. Please note the change in time; we have split the year into the two time periods to accommodate those who work (evenings) and those who prefer meeting during the day.
​
There are opportunities to purchase drawing tickets or pick up a quilts of love package, or sign up for a workshop. Members are responsible for bringing a door prize in their birthday month. Door prizes should be quilting or sewing related items—please no white elephants.
