All About Acacia

We have members in the business, education, and political fields. We have members who are retired but very active in the community. Like your favorite scrappy quilt, we're an interesting and eclectic bunch! Since we are a small-ish group, it is easy to get to know everyone on a personal level. If you're looking for friendly folks who love quilting, Acacia is the group for you!

Acacia Quilt Guild is a 501(c3) organization that is open to anyone interested in quilting. Our goals are to:

• Preserve the heritage of quilt making and educate the public as to the significance and history of quilting as an art form as well as an ongoing craft.
• Further the education and skill levels of the members of this Guild or people interested in or engaged in quilting.
• Support our local communities through philanthropic donations to help other non-profit groups.

We work toward our goals by providing speakers and quilt related workshops monthly. Expanding the education about quilting, increasing the skills of quilters, and utilizing these skills to help those in need through our philanthropy projects. . We donate items made by our guild such as quilts, pillowcases, totes, and more as well as collect needed items (such as toiletries, school supplies, and toys) for other groups helping those in need.

We welcome quilters of all levels. Even if you've just started sewing and are thinking of trying to quilt you'll find a welcoming sewing community with Acacia. Feel free to join us at the monthly meeting. Click Here to check the calendar for information on all events.
