About Us

The Pioneer Quilters Guild is a non-profit organization dedicated to the growth and knowledge of quilting techniques, patterns and the history of quilt making.

We meet on the first Monday of each month at the Sheperd of the Sierra Presbyterian Church, 5400 Barton Road, Loomis, CA. (Beause of "first Monday" holidays we have no meeting in July, and our September meeting is actually the last Monday in August.) We snack and socialize at 6:30 pm and our meeting starts at 7:00. We have fun meetings, activities, and speakers. Members are assigned to be "snack hostesses" each meeting. We also have a wonderful quilt show in November, with beautiful quilts (including our Opportunity Quilt) and boutique.

Our membership is limited to 150. We maintain a waiting list for prospective members if needed. Our membership application (for both new and renewing members) is on our forms page. Members are expected to support the activities of the Guild by voluntary service to the Guild, such as participation in fund-raising activities, serving on committees, assisting in community service projects, and attending a minumum of 5 meetings per year. For information about membership, contact Sandy Nelson at (916) 781-3776 (days) or (916) 786-9036 (evenings).

Our mailing address is: Pioneer Quilters Guild, PO Box 126, Rocklin CA 95677.

If you would like more information about our guild or its activities, you may email our current President, Dana Swain, or call her at 916-791-9483.

Directions to our meeting place: From I-80, take the Rocklin Road exit east. It dead-ends into Barton Road. Turn left onto Barton Road; the church is immediately on your left.
