General Workshop Information:

This guild year we have four speakers with eight workshops scheduled.

Registration for workshops will be announced in the guild newsletter, as it becomes available. The cost for workshops for guild members is $50 and non-guild members is $60. ***Plus any additional class fees that may apply to a particular class.

Guild members will have priority to register for all guild workshops but all workshops are open to anyone who wishes to participate as space allows.

Our goal is to have a full class each time, as we strive to bring nationally known teachers to Raleigh and Capital Quilters Guild!

Registration is first come, first served so be sure to get your registration form and check mailed promptly when the form becomes available to insure your spot in a class!

There will be opportunities to sign-up at the guild meeting, if there is space available. At the meeting, we can accept cash, check or charge. If mailing, only a check.

Refund Policy: Full refund will be made if requested 30 days prior to the workshop. Without 30 days notice, you will only receive a full refund if space can be filled from the waiting list. If not, you will receive a credit for a future workshop.

Most workshops will be held at:

Highland United Methodist Church- Conference Room
