Welcome to our Website! We are glad you stopped by with interest in our Guild.

The Elk Grove Quilt Guild was founded in 1998. The purpose of the Guild is to preserve the heritage of quilting, promote cooperation and exchange of ideas among those persons interested or engaged in quilting, further the education and skill levels of the members, share the spirit of friendship, and contribute to the welfare of the community.

The guild participates in the community with quilts made by members and donated to various recipients. This year 200 quilts were donated to the following organizations: Maryhouse, Chicks in Crisis, Weave, St. John's Homeless Shelter, Creekside Senior Village, Crisis Nursery, and the Ronald McDonald House. Thank you to all members that participated.

The guild meets every third Thursday at the First Baptist Church of Elk Grove, located at 8939 E. Stockton Blvd, Elk Grove, CA 95624. See map below. Meetings are held at 7:00 p.m. with social hour beginning at 6:30 p.m. Various speakers are brought in to lecture and teach throughout the year. See Meetings for this months' topic and workshop. Guests are welcome, and when meetings include speakers or lectures, a small fee of $3 is asked of visiting guests. Click here for information on Membership.
