Workshops
Workshops can give you new techniques, new knowledge, and new inspiration – you may be surprised at what YOU can do! Check out all of our upcoming workshops by looking at the guild Calendar.
Workshop sign-ups are taken at the Workshop table at guild meetings, or contact our 2nd VP Sherri Belsley.
Sign-ups are considered confirmed only after payment of fees. Sign up early as slots often fill quickly.

Community Service
lakeview quilters guild Serves our community
If you are interested in making a community service quilt, check out our Community Service page. Scroll down for a list of suggested sizes of quilts. A multitude of kits are available at each guild meeting for piecing, quilting, and/or binding. You don’t have to do everything — every little bit helps in the making of these heartfelt gifts to people in our community who are dealing with unique challenges.

Lottery Blocks
How does the lottery block system work? Make two blocks. One is for the lottery; the other is used in the guild’s annual auction. For each two blocks you make and turn in on the due date, you get one chance to win all the blocks in the lottery set. The more you make, the greater your chance to win – and the guild’s share of blocks-sets bring in auction income that helps pay for our programs.
If you did not turn in your blocks on the due date, you can still contribute to the guild by making blocks for the auction. Visit the Auction/Lottery Blocks page for instructions.
2024 Fall Retreat - September 4-8
Twelve Pines Retreat Center
Please join us September 4-8 at Twelve Pines Retreat Center in Huntsville, TX for a great time with our friends. It will be a great opportunity to get away and sew with no need worry about those pesky household chores.
Twelve Pines has a spacious sewing room with lots of light and individual work tables. Sleeping arrangements are 4 person rooms (twin beds) and a bathroom shared between the 4. There are two bathrooms with accommodations for those with mobility issues. The kitchen is fully functional so if we cook, we only have to bring the ingredients…all pots/pans/etc. included.
There is a small store attached with scrumptious fabric and patterns. No need to wait in line. Pull the fabric you want, write down the amount of each bolt and the owner will cut the fabric and deliver it to you. What a deal!
Wednesday – Sunday is $250.00 (No meals)
Thursday – Sunday is $215.00 (No meals)
Register at Guild meetings until August 2024. Must be a member to attend.
