Westside
Quilters is open to all traditional, contemporary and art quilters of
any age, from beginner to expert. Lecture presentations, workshops and
field trips are held throughout the year.
Our
Mission:
A new kind of quilt guild organized for educational
and charitable purposes; to promote cooperation and the exchange of ideas
among quilters; to instruct members in methods and techniques of traditional
and contemporary creative quilting; to serve mini-groups and their philanthropic
endeavors within the community; to inspire personal achievement.
We are back meeting in person and starting in 2025 all speakers and workshops will be IN PERSON. Members also have the option of attending our quarterly meetings over Zoom. We do ask that if you do not feel well or have been exposed to Covid, that you not attend in person meetings.
