Chevy Chase.
NeedleChasers of Chevy Chase.
We currently have about 60 members, drawn primarily from Washington DC
and Montgomery County MD, and enthusiastically welcome new and
experienced quilters! For an annual fee of $25 (waived for members 80 and
above), members can attend meetings and bees, receive our monthly
newsletter, borrow from our library of approximately 100 quilting books
and videos, and receive discounts on quilting supplies at local quilt
stores. We meet from September through June on the second Wednesday of
each month from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the Chevy Chase DC Branch Library,
5625 Connecticut Avenue NW, Washington DC 20015. Our meetings usually
feature a guest lecturer, demonstrations, show-and-tell, and other
activities for both the traditional and contemporary quilter. We also
hold quilting bees each month and sponsor a biennial quilt show where
members can display their projects. We’re proud of our active support
of various charities through quilting, including a monthly bee devoted
entirely to making quilts for donation. For more information about our
activities, please visit our web site or contact us at contactus@needlechasers.org
