Neighborhood groups are the heart of our guild. This is where we meet monthly and share ideas, have show and tell, and learn new techniques. You are welcome to join us at any of the meetings below that fit your schedule, one or all of them! You may attend two meetings to try us out before joining. Each meeting has a little different style to it. Please contact us for more information on what is happening at the meeting you would like to attend and let us know you will be joining them that day.
***We are hoping to start a new neighborhood group in the Salinas area this spring. If you are interested in being a part of this new group/or would like to offer your home for a planning meeting, please contact us. We would like input as to what days/times work best for you so that we can have as many members in this area participate as possible.***
