A Message From The President

Welcome to Ocean Waves!

Quilt Guild Chapter 296 of the National Quilting Association (NQA), was founded in January 1985, and chartered
NQA on May 1, 1985. Our goals are to promote interest in all aspects of quilt making, to allow members to develop
skills and to display their creations.

We hold monthly meetings, publish a newsletter, sponsor a bi-annual quilt show, organize quilt trips, and provide
programs and workshops for our members. Ocean Waves has over 130 members. Anyone interested in quilts, quilt
making, or related fiber arts is invited to join, regardless of skill level or area of interest.


Guild Meetings
The Ocean Waves Quilt Guild meets the second Saturday of each month at Miami West Active Day
Care, 13768 SW 8th Street. The doors open at 9:00 a.m.; to members, potential members, and guests to browse
the information at the membership table, check out a book, or two or three from our extensive Library, purchase
Ocean Waves t-shirts, pins, or other promotional items, or just to get a good seat. The General Membership
meeting begins at 9:30 a.m. Board Meetings are held on Wednesdays the week of the guild meeting, the meeting is
currently being held at Awesome Embroidery at 6:00 pm.

The business portion of the general membership meeting may have a scheduled program feature. The
speaker/lecturer may present a trunk show, entertainment, or give a demonstration as a preamble to an afternoon
workshop. Concluding the meeting is a favorite part of the morning activity with "Show and Help and UFO
Challenge." See what Guild members have been working on, and show off your projects in a fun, supportive
atmosphere. After the meeting we break for refreshments to allow members and visitors time to mingle before
the afternoon workshop(s) begin.
