Welcome to our Home Page!

SLO Quilters is a non-profit, educational corporation whose mission is to promote quilting through education and fellowship. We first organized in 1981 and now have more than 200 members.

We meet at 7 p.m. on the second Monday of each month at the Congregational United Church of Christ, located at 11245 Los Osos Valley Road (adjacent to the Laguna Lake Golf Course) in San Luis Obispo, California. Visitors are welcome at our meetings.

Meetings usually consist of a program -- often a lecture, demonstration, or slide show -- and the popular regular features of block-a-month and show-and-tell.

SLO Quilters has a monthly newsletter, Quiltspeak, to inform members about our meetings and other items of interest to quilters.

The guild has a library of quilting books that members may check out to enjoy at home. Additionally, members can order books for themselves at reduced group rates.

We work together to present Quilt Festival, a major quilt show with vendors, an opportunity quilt and a fashion show, in odd-numbered years. In even-numbered years, we hold a quilt auction. Between shows we bring well-known quiltmakers to San Luis Obispo to lecture and teach workshops. All these events are open to the public.

Through our Community Quilts program, members make and donate cuddle quilts for needy, abused and ill children.

We invite you to join us! Membership is open to all who pay the $20.00 annual dues. Send check to SLO Quilters, P.O. Box 14306, San Luis Obispo, CA 93406, or stop by our meetings.
