I finally made it to Kansas from Germany and I'm wanting to get out and meet people. Of course similar interests always help, so I'm hoping to find a quilt guild in the area to join. Please let me know.
THANKS!!!!!! :-D

I pastored the UM church in Riley, there. Then I lived in Ogden. I know of quilt shops, etc. in Lawrence. I do know almost every UM church has a quilt group and they would love for you to join.

Find a quilt shop in that area, and set up a meet and greet here on this quilting board to meet other in that area, post in the offline section

good luck

Welcome from TN. I grew up in Manhattan, KS. Graduated from K-State (Go Wildcats) and worked at Ft. Riley for 16 years before I PCS'd to Germany. Small world huh? :-D

I still have my KState Tshirts. Go 'cats!

I am from Kansas (Wellington & Mulvane) we moved to WA when Boeing had their big transfer back in 1962. I always knew when we crossed back into Kansas because people were friendly and talked where ever we stopped. My aunt returns to the family home 6 months out of every year. Hope you have a great time while you are there. My folks attended KU - so for us it is, "Go Jayhawks!" :-)

Sounds like you need to build your own guild. 'If you build it they will come..'

Welcome from Manhattan, KS. Would love to have you be a part of our quilting guild. You can look us up on the internet Konza Prairie Quilters Guild - Home. I'm partial because I belong to this morning group, but many of our members also belong to the evening guild. Hope you will check us out. Send me a PM if you want more information.

I'm in Leavenworth, a ''short'' 2 hour drive East. My Dad did his basic at Fort Riley...many many many years ago! We have a few pretty good LQS shops in the area.....worth the drive....IMO!!

It is a bit of a drive, but you are welcome to visit our guild in Wichita, Prairie Quilt Guild. Check us out on the web.
