Ronda Sinyard, owner of Quilter’s Dream Fabric Shop, will present the program for the members of the Pine Bluff Quilters Guild when they meet at 10 a.m. Tuesday at Trinity Lutheran Church, 4200 Old Warren Road.
Show-and-tell, fat quarter and door prize drawings will be held after the business meeting. Every member with a birthday during the month of April is reminded to bring a door prize, which should be related to quilting or sewing. Door prizes are given out at the end of the meeting and all winners must be present.
Members are also reminded to wear a name tag with an emergency telephone number. A sack lunch will be enjoyed by all who wish to participate.
The fat quarter choice is floral. At any time, white, white-on-white or beige or beige-on-beige is accepted. Everyone is encouraged to bring a fat quarter (18-by-22 inches) of 100 percent cotton.
Plans will be finalized for the retreat to be held April 23-26. Demonstrations will be presented on “one seam flying geese” and “magic pillow cases”.

The Pine Bluff Quilters Guild’s annual membership fee is $20. Anyone interested in learning the art of quilt-making is welcome to visit and become a member, according to a club spokesman.
The purpose of the Pine Bluff Quilters Guild is to ensure the continuity of the craft by teaching the techniques of quilting, and to encourage, and promote an interest in quilting to the public. Membership is open to all who are interested in quilting.
“Come and join us, what you don’t know about quilting, we can teach and what you know about quilting, we can learn,” a guild spokesman said.
