Each member who joins will be added to the above list.

In the month of your assigned birthday you will receive a fat quarter from all of the participants.

If we have 20 participants you will receive 20 fat quarters. 

You may choose any type of print or batik you wish.  It should be cotton, for quilting specifically.

This is a lot of fun and you will benefit from All Of The Wonderful Fabric You Will Receive.

Any Questions call Nancy Smith, 941-697-5729, or email tubbydoc@comcast.net.

Members who would like to participate in Round Robin, or Row Robin, please send an email to sunshineguild@hazedaze.com. When we have at least 6 interested members we will get together and plan our project. This is a lot of fun. At the completion of the project each participant has a finished quilt top that has been made by all of the others in the group.

Any one who would like to participate in a Birthday Club, please email sunshineguild@hazedaze.com. If you want to join this group you must be prepared to stay in it through the entire year.

On your birthday, you will receive a fat quarter from each participant. On their birthday you will give each one of them a fat quarter !

You get to chose the type or pattern of fabric you would like !
