| HOME | About Us Gold
Bug Quilters was started in July of 1987 with 12 members. The
name was chosen to represent our Gold Rush heritage. We are now
the largest quilt guild in El Dorado County with 125 members. The
purpose of our guild is to contribute to the growth and knowledge of
quilting through education and fellowship. Gold Bug Quilters also
use their talents for community service projects. Our members
make cuddle quilts that are donated to Child Protective Services and
Family Connections, and we encourage our members to make at least one
cuddle quilt each year. 141 cuddle quilts were donated in 2009.
We also give annual scholarships. Program
meetings are held the 4th Tuesday of the month at the Seventh-Day Adventist Church of Placerville, 6831 Mother Lode Dr., Placerville, California.
The doors open at 6:30 pm and the meeting starts at 7 pm. The
meeting is open to members and visitors. The program consists
of a brief information time, a special program, refreshments, “show
and tell”, and drawings for “pot of gold”, door prizes, birthdays,
fabric basket, and “block of the month”. In
even-numbered years, we produce a wonderful quilt show displaying the
quilts of our guild. If you would like more information about our guild or its activities, you may email our current President, Mary Osborne, at mary@goldbugquilters.org or call her at 530-677-1501. |
