The Common Thread Quilt Guild now boasts approximately 200 members, who come from all over the Ottawa/Hull area. We meet once a month (at the MIFO Centre, when in-person) for our regular meeting, which always includes a show and tell, often a guest speaker, mini demos and more. We are a member of the Canadian Quilters’ Association.
