Exciting News from the Board of Directors!

A new biennial Chapter Challenge has just been announced. A Competition among TAS Chapters starts March 1, 2013. Chapters will create a 48” x 48” appliqué quilt, with the hope of winning some great prizes and the honor of being declared champion quilters. If you are a member of TAS and want to play in this competition, we encourage you to find the nearest Chapter and join them for the fun and challenge of the competition.
