Technique Sharing Workshops (TSW for short) are free, and take place at our guild meetings, always beginning after the lunch break and lasting between 30 min. and 2 hours, depending on the topic. These workshops, led or taught by our own members on a volunteer basis, give our members a chance to share, learn and practice various special techniques related to quilting.
The Home Page Calendar includes the 2012 Technique Sharing Workshops.
TSW Handouts are archived on the blog, effective with the 2011 TSWs.
