We’re taking “Why Quilts Matter” to the next level with the creation of a Continuing the Conversation<\/em> guide! \u00a0Think of the guide in terms of a “book club,” you watch an episode of the series and then get together with a group to talk about it using questions from the guide. \u00a0You can use the guide in guilds, classrooms, or with a group of friends. \u00a0We don\u2019t care where you use it just as long as you are keeping the discussion about quilts going so that quilts and quiltmakers get the respect they deserve!<\/p>\n

\"Why<\/a>In order to raise money for printing and production of the guides we are asking for your help \u2013 we need to raise $6,500 in 30 days to make these guides come to life. \u00a0To make our fundraising process go as smoothly as possible, we\u2019re using Kickstarter.com, a well-respected fundraising site that helps facilitate donations easily. Why recreate the wheel if someone possible\u00a0else is already doing it well?<\/p>\n

Here’s what you need to do:\u00a0<\/strong>Visit our Kickstarter page<\/strong><\/a> to learn more about the guides. If you like what you see, donate.<\/p>\n

We’ve attached some great rewards to the various contribution levels so be sure to check it out. Your help will get the quilt conversation going with more and more people!<\/p>\n
