| Ocean Waves Quilt Guild NQA 296 |
| Ocean Waves Chapter, NQA #296, was founded in January 1985, and chartered by the national Quilting Association on May 1, 1985. Our chapter 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 meeting, publish a newsletter and website, and organize workshops. At our monthly meetings current information about the activities of other national, state, local quilters, and quilt groups are discussed. Member's works are shown and admired. Ocean Waves has over 75 members with a monthly attendance around 45 members. Anyone interested in quilts or quilt making is invited to become a member, regardless of skill lever or area of interest. Classes and workshops cover a wide range of quilting/fiber art. For those members that want more information on a subject, our library of about 1100 books may help. Ocean Waves members gather together for camaraderie and community service, sharing their talents and each other's company in making quilts for the benefit of our local community as well as national causes. |
