Meetings and Programs
The Red River Quilters meet on the first Monday of each month in Pierce Hall at Broadmoor United Methodist Church, 3715 Youree Drive, Shreveport. You have two meetings to choose from: Afternoon Meeting at 1:00 and Evening Meeting at 6:00, but you might want to come early to shop the give-away table and visit with fellow quilters.
Each meeting consists of an educational program, announcements, an abbreviated business meeting, and our favorite—Show and Tell. Members share their quilts and quilt stories.
In July and December, we have a night meeting only at 6:00 p.m. where we share a potluck dinner, conduct any needed business, and play quilt related games.
