Our President
Meet Carrie Menough. Carrie has been a member of the United Quilt Guild for 10+ years and says the best part of being a guild member is Show and Tell, which inspire her to be creative, and the friendships that she has made over the years.

We truly love quilting, it’s something that provides us opportunities not only to socialize and make connections, but it’s something creative we can do with our hands
