The Lake Michigan Sampler Guild meets the second or third Sunday of each month from September through May at the library in Glen Ellyn, Illinois at 1:30 pm. Please check our schedule for exact meeting dates and times. We also offer a wide selection of programs and workshops throughout the year including the summer months presented by well known teachers. We hope to see you at our next meeting!

One of the significant benefits of joining LMSG is the opportunity to attend workshops. Workshops are presented by nationally known teachers and are offered at lower prices than the same classes scheduled at national conferences. At the Sunday general meetings, there are programs presented by needlework experts. These programs are included in your cost of membership. Occasionally, the guild sponsors special events like lectures and field trips. There may an additional charge for these events.

We have members from more than 20 different states as far away as California and Virginia. Even if you don't live close enough to come to every meeting, there are many benefits to becoming a member.
