The Guild is made up of over 125 Chapters with nearly 1,000 Neighborhood Groups. Chapters promote sewing in local communities through encouragement education and support.
NO ASG CHAPTER IN YOUR STATE OR TOWN?
There may be a Neighborhood Group that meets nearby – try contacting the chapter presidents of the nearest chapters to find out. Perhaps you’ll find a group that meets in a nearby town. Or maybe one of the chapters would like to help you organize a small group in your town.
Or you may want to start a brand new chapter which involves:
1. Requesting and reading information about ASG and the development process. You will be contacted by us and receive Kit #1.
2. Hosting an organizational meeting with the help of Kit #2.
3. Recruiting at least five people to serve as an organizing committee and another ten to join ASG to get started.
4. You’ll get Kit #3 and a small amount of seed money to give you a head start. After completing a successful year which includes chapter meetings an event or two publishing a newsletter and recruiting more members there’ll be a new chapter to add to our ranks! And you started it all.

Neighborhood Groups
A neighborhood group is a part of a chapter. Chapters often have neighborhood groups in several towns. A neighborhood group’s attendees are members of the chapter and get together to hold informal meetings usually once a month. Some neighborhood groups specialize in programs about one topic such as embroidery and others cover all sewing topics. Chapter members may attend as many neighborhood group meetings as they wish – within their chapter or across the nation.
