EBHQers enjoy meeting in person at the Albany Church. We work on projects, swap fabric, check out each others quilts, and chat up a storm. Also, there is an informal Show & Tell at 11 am!

Potluck lunches are on Tuesdays only. Saturdays and Wednesdays, bring a bag lunch.

Need inspiration for a future project? The EBHQ Lending Library welcomes visitors to the second floor during Open Quilting hours. Browse through books in the airy, light-filled room, or check them out for home use. Read about the Lending Library here.

Available at OQ for your use during each session: irons, ironing boards, cutting mats, extension cords for your sewing machine, large tables with risers for pinning quilts (if space allows), and design boards.

Free Table: Bring fabric of any size to give away at the free table. Donated fabric must be clean and useable (no faded, stained, or smelly fabric, thanks). Generally, scraps should be

large enough for applique and piecing (think 2-1/2” square and 2” x 6”).

Currently, a member takes leftover fabric to donate to other nonprofits. If this changes,

you may need to retrieve your donated fabric. There is no space to store more fabric in the

closets which are crammed full.
