Founded in 2005 by quilters who wanted to share their love of quilting with others, our guild's purpose was to promote appreciation and interest in quilting and to provide educational opportunities. Reimagined in 2023 -- The Sassi Stripper Stitchers meets every third Thursday from 4 to 8 p.m at the Jones Creek Library. Come and go during that time. Work on any kind of stitchery. Sharing, show and tell, and fellowship.

May Meeting
Good evening ladies.
I am really looking forward to seeing you guys at our meeting on Thursday. I am exited to let you know that our very talented quilting friend Judy Holly will be presenting our program. She will discuss fabric and quilts in her "sample Magic" presentation. If she has time and you bring some orphan blocks she will also show us how to put these random blocks in assorted sizes together. It should be a great evening.
We will of course do our regular stuff as well. Don't forget to bring show and tell.
See y'all Thursday! Sharon
