  • Our membership extends to the farthest boundaries of Tampa Bay, with Feather Princesses coming from Hernando, Hillsborough, Pasco, Pinellas, and Polk counties to regularly attend our meetings and other guild activities. Plus we have several members who reside in other states.

Because of our diversity and broad range of appliqué interests and knowledge, talents, and skills, we get together each month not only at our wonderful guild meeting, but at three different quilt circles, seven specialty appliqué quilt groups, and one hand quilting group.

We are so grateful for each other and the love that permeates our group; and we keep our feet firmly planted, seeking appliqué opportunities wherever they may be found.
