Established in 1987.
Our mission is to stimulate an interest in quilts, to promote and advance the art of quilt making, to conduct
educational programs and services in all aspects of quilt making, to preserve our quilting heritage and
traditions and provide comfort through quilts in our community.
We provide a gathering place for people with a common interest in quilting. We provide educational
opportunities for our members and the general public by bringing in speakers and providing workshops. The
guild provides a library on every possible quilting subject.
The guild has always been, and continues to be, involved in community outreach programs by providing
thousands of quilts to the Infant Crisis Center, Children First and Habitat for Humanity.
