Six libraries are participating – Coopersville Area, Gary Byker (Hudsonville), Georgetown, Herrick, Loutit, and Spring Lake. A Quilt Hop Library Card, punched by at least 3 participating libraries, will put you in the running for a $25 gift certificate from a local quilt shop. Highlights of the month include a special kickoff event featuring Marsha MacDowell of MSU with a Zoom program on The Quilt Index: Michigan & World Quilt History, classes, demos, mystery quilt blocks, free bookcase quilt pattern, and displays. This will be Thursday, March 3, at 6:30 via Zoom. Register via Quilt Hop Library

Took us a while to remember how to hang the quilts. But we finally figured it out and got all the necessary parts.
How many people does it take to hang a quilt? This is our raffle quilt.

Wonderful display of the talent in our guild at both libraries. Every member should plan to see these in person. Special appreciation to the hangers for their hard work!
