Quilt-O?
#1
I am going to my first quilting show this year (Pacific International Quilt Festival in Santa Clara, CA) and on the schedule it says Quilt-O and that it's a lot of fun, bring your husband, friend, ect.
My question is- is it really fun for non-quilters? What exactly is it? Just wondering if I should bring my non-quilter friend. I don't have any friends who quilt!
Thanks!!!

We play Quilto every September. It's one of our most popular meetings. September is when we ask everyone to pay their $12 yearly dues. It costs $5 to play, if your dues are not paid. The prizes are mostly quilting items and fabric, and we play 3 games with very special prizes.

Click on 'Online Extras' and then 'FREE Designs'. It's at the bottom under 'Other', and is called 'Quilt Guild Bingo'.

Our guild plays Quilt-o at least once a year, usually at the Guild Birthday party or the Christmas party. We usually play three games - make a ring around the center "free" square, then regular bingo (up/down, across, or diagonal), then blackout (all squares must be covered). With our rules, the squares that are covered in the previous games remain covered, which makes the games a little shorter.
