The Metropolitan Patchwork Society was founded in 2000 by 14 women who envisioned a guild that would provide members with opportunities for friendship, fellowship, education and sharing, in an atmosphere of cooperation and teamwork. The founding members believed that membership in this guild should be rewarding and a source of joy and inspiration to all its members — welcoming both traditional and contemporary quilters.
Members would be expected to be active participants, and we feel strongly that the obligations of membership can and should be shared and never become a burden for any individual. To that end we deliberately chose to keep our mission simple and achievable. We have incorporated such things as an ongoing charity program and refreshments at meetings.
MPS does not specifically support any one ongoing charity, but we have many charity groups that our members are a part of. We encourage the participation and good will of charity work of all kinds. If you have interest in the different charity groups we participate in, or wish to help, please contact us for more information through our web site.
MPS holds a bi-annual quilt show and quilt raffle. The next show will be on April 18, 2009. You can see the raffle quilt on our website.
