The Brazos Bluebonnet Quilt Guild meets on the second Tuesday of each month at
7:00 p.m. at the Brazos Center on Briarcrest Drive, east of the Earl Rudder Freeway (Hwy. 6 bypass), in Bryan, Texas. At most meetings, there is a call to order at 7 p.m., followed by announcements. Next is our program presented by the guest speaker. That is followed by the business meeting and a "show and tell" by members.

Workshops are noted below in green. When you sign up for a workshop, you must give payment in order to reserve your place at the workshop. For most workshops, please bring a contribution to lunch (sandwiches, covered dish, or dessert, etc.) We sit down and eat together during lunch.

Programs/member meetings are all scheduled to be held in the Brazos Center and begin at 7 p.m. Locations for the workshops will vary.
