The guild's Bee groups are composed of members who enjoy handwork in any form, be it: appliqué, English paper piecing, embellishing, quilting, embroidery — or even the mundane task of quilt binding!
Group members generously share techniques, encouragement, and creative inspiration. A favourite part of the time together involves show and tell.
There are currently two complementary Bee groups, and members can belong to either or both.
The Library Bee Group is hosted by Carol McFee, and meets on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month from 10 AM to 2 PM. Sessions are held in the meeting room of the Emerald Plaza Public Library, located at 1547 Merivale Avenue in Ottawa.
Every 6 months each group member must pay their portion of the facility rental cost, which is usually around $30-35.
Due to space limitations, membership in this group is limited to 12. Currently the group is at capacity, but if you are interested in joining you can ask Carol to add you to the wait list.
For further information about the Library Bee Group, contact Carol using the OVQG Member Directory.
The Zoom Bee Group is hosted by Judy Toews, and meets from 10 AM to 12 noon on the Thursdays the Library Bee Group does not meet, or if a library session is cancelled due to weather or library scheduling issues. (Click here for the Zoom meeting link.)
This group is open to all guild members. There is no need to register, and there are no space limitations or fees to join.
