Lake Norman Quilters meets the fourth Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. at Centre Presbyterian Church in Mooresville, near I-77 Exit 33. (Meeting dates are sometimes changed to the third Tuesday in November and December due to holidays. The June meeting is also different this year because of a scheduling conflict at the church.)
Meetings feature educational programs and opportunities for members to show their work and enjoy time with each other. Refreshments are served at 6:30 p.m. The business portion of the meeting starts at 7 p.m., and the program follows.
We are a friendly, informal, fun-loving group with nearly 60 members. Anyone interested in learning more about quilting is welcome to attend.
