Our Guild is dedicated to preserving this country's quilting heritage through the education and enhancement of quilt-making skills. Our members have a love of quilting and all things quilt-related and welcome those who have similar interests. Since 1976 we have grown from a small group of founding members to 200 and growing!
Each year an opportunity quilt is made by the guild and raffled to generate operating funds. Tickets are available at various functions during the year. To learn more about our current Opportunity Quilt, click here. To learn more about us, what we offer, and how you can become a member, visit our About Us page.
In 2010 the Guild created a DVD of quilt photographs set to music, a virtual quilt show you can enjoy on your television or computer. Our members have shared some of their favorite quilts, there are photos of all the past Opportunity Quilts, some Friendship Block projects, Challenge Quilts, Sew-a-Row quilts and much more. If you love quilts, you’ll love watching this DVD. Just click on the box below, print the order form and mail it back to us.
Several quilt-related businesses are members of the Santa Rosa Quilt Guild and many offer discounts. To see a list, click here.
