Attention Quilt Guilds |
Marcus Brothers knows and appreciates the vital role
that guilds play in promoting the art of quilting
throughout the world. To make the most of this section,
we invite you to tell us, and quilters around the world,
about your guild, by listing it in our free quilt guild
directory. The survey should be completed by an officer
of your guild (the president, vice president, treasurer,
etc.) - please submit only ONE survey per guild. If your
overall guild is made up of several chapters, responses
should reflect the total activity of all chapters
combined.
To add your guild to our worldwide
quilt guild directory,
please complete our
brief survey.
If you have any questions before submitting your
survey, please contact
