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 fee of $5 (or $10 for nationally
known speakers).
Check our
program
and workshop calendar for upcoming speakers. For more information, e-mail
