Pride of the Prairie Quilters

Welcome!

The purpose of the Pride of the Prairie Quilters is to develop and promote an interest in the art of quilting. 

The guild presents programs of interest to its members and guests, educates through lectures and workshops, and encourages philanthropic activities.  Monthly guild meetings are open to all who share this interest in quilting.  Guests are welcome to attend for a $5 fee.

Check our program and workshop calendar for upcoming speakers.  For more information, e-mail a guild representative.

Don't know what to do with all your EXTRA FABRIC STASH?

Join us September 18th for a special lecture "Scrap Busters", given by Jan Krueger and Linda Marcou.  "Turn Your stash into an explosion of scrap quilts and make everyone happy! From traditional to contemporary we'll share stories, fabric secrets, pattern ideas & more!"

September is also our Philantropy month.  This year we are helping Mercy Ministries by providing quilts which will be distributed at Christmas.  We are collecting rag quilts in September.  Click here for exact details of how you can help.
