Meet the guild
The Blue Springs Twilight Stitchers Quilt Guild was established in 1996 and has had a membership of around 100 for the past eight years. The skill level of the members ranges from novice to national award winners, who love to share and learn from each other. Guild programs vary from lectures and trunk shows by well-known speakers or a school house demonstration of quilting techniqu

es and tools by guild members. The monthly newsletter keeps everyone advised of upcoming events. The guild provides a sign language interpreter at their meetings for hearing impaired members and guests. Visitors are welcome to attend two meetings each year and, by then, the guild hopes guests will like the group enough to join them as a member.

She has also had her own quilting business, Hawthorne Custom Quilts, for many years and quilted for many well-known quilters including Renee Nanneman, Michael Nardi, and Reeze Hanson. She has won many awards with her own quilts in various shows. She is a Board Member of the Heartland Quilt Network.

What: Ergonomics in Quilting
Karen's topic is 'Ergonomics in Quilting'. Ergonomics is the study of people’s efficiency in a functional environment with the goal of reducing pain and fatigue. Regarding quilting, it will help you with choosing a chair (Seating & Posture), protecting joints, setting up your workstation for maximum efficacy, and providing for greater pain-free enjoyment.
