SCCQG at Road to California

What a week it was! We collected over $4700 in cash donations, hundreds of quilts, and a bin full of tools and notions. Now the work/fun begins! 

 

SCCQG Disaster Fund

In addition, the Council has a Disaster Fund. In past years, we have been able to make a small donation to guild members who have lost their homes. Toward this effort, we are asking that Member Guilds notify us of any of your members who have lost their homes. To do so, please click here to provide that information. We will collect this information in the coming weeks and hope to have a full list to review at our February board meeting.

The guild is requesting new quilts, lap size and bed size, which they will distribute at recovery events coordinated with Ventura County agencies. Please contact Patrice4CQA@yahoo.com for further information. Camarillo Quilters Association, P.O.  Box 347, Camarillo, CA 93011

Welcome to the Southern California Council of Quilt Guilds!

Welcome to the Southern California Council of Quilt Guilds (SCCQG) website. The purpose of this site is to provide council information to member guilds, business partners, and individual members.

The Southern California Council of Quilt Guilds (a 501 (c) (3) association) was organized for several purposes:
 
  • To foster and promote knowledge and participation in the craft/art form of quilting, patchwork, appliqué, and all other aspects of quilt making.
 
  • To act as an information network for quilt guilds with similar objectives in promoting continued interest in quilt making.
 
  • To provide a forum for cooperative endeavors among all quilt guilds in Southern California and surrounding areas.
 
  • To readily inform quilt guilds and individual quilters of resources available to them.
 
  • To encourage development of friendships state, nation, and world wide.
 
  • To foster education through cooperative sharing of speakers, teachers, and programs for member guilds.
 
  • To act as a resource for those wishing to organize new guilds.
 
  • To maintain a calendar for quilting events in the Southern California geographic area and to make such information readily available.
