Small Groups are the modern day equivalent to the old fashioned quilting bee. Several small groups have formed as a result of friendships made through the Des Moines Area Quilt Guild. Small groups range in size from 2 - 25 members. Some groups have been meeting for several years, others are just forming. These groups establish regular meeting times, and often meet in one another's homes, restaurant, library, church or community center.  Small groups may study a common theme, participate in exchanges, round robins, take shopping trips, visit quilt shows, retreats and a variety of other planned activities.  This area of the website will be used to identify the small groups that are active within our guild.
