Boutique

The Boutique is one of the major fund raisers for the Guild and we are asking members to donate items to be sold at the Boutique booth at the Quilt Show this fall. The funds that are raised by the Boutique will help the Guild provide excellent speakers and teachers for the next two years. A table will be set up at each Guild meeting to collect donations and provide a list of ideas for you as well as many patterns. The projects do not have to be limited to quilted or quilt-related items, but should be primarily, if not completely, handmade.

We would like to suggest that your group select several different projects and create fewer items of each project. If you create at most 5 to10 of the larger items and 10 to 20 of the smaller items, we are more likely to be able to sell all of them. The cost of the boutique items should be at most $40 and at least $1. We would prefer to not have too many items that sell for $1.

You will be asked to put a price tag (provided by Boutique) on items when they are turned in. All donated items will be sold at the Boutique. If the donations are not sold, they will be given to an appropriate charitable organization or used as Guild door prizes. We encourage you to use your own ideas and patterns, but if you need suggestions or help, see the list below or contact us.
