Quilting at Trophy Gardens

As we become more acquainted with just some of the activities that Trophy Gardens offers I thought it would be fun to check in with the various quilting activities that go on in this park. Yesterday I stopped in at one of the sewing rooms/meeting rooms and the quilters were talking about a quilt that they are going to raffle off and I believe the proceeds will go toward a new sewing building. At this point I don't have the details but when I get them will be sure to post them here

This park has a longarm quilting machine and that is certainly one thing that made my ears perk up when we were park shopping. They also have quilting groups and quilting classes. In addition the Rio Grande Valley Quilting Group (hopefully that is close to the official name) meets here. They were here last Saturday morning and it appeared to be a large group. This is the group that  puts on the big quilt show out on South Padre Island. As it gets closer to the show I know there will be ample information available as to dates and time.

This is a picture of some of the quilters gathered together yesterday discussing the raffle quilt when I stopped in with my camera.


Below are a couple of photos I got this morning in the longarm room which is in the main hall.
