About Us
The Oregon Coastal Quilters Guild was founded in February 1991 to promote fellowship among quilters; to promote knowledge and appreciation of quilts and quilt making through educational programs and meetings; and to sponsor and support quilting activities.
We currently have 171 members primarily from Lincoln County. Our general meetings are on the second Thursday of the month at the Atonement Lutheran Church in Newport (2315 N Coast Highway) and alternate between daytime and evening. Our annual quilt show is held in Newport beginning the first Friday in August.
The Guild's calendar year is December 1 to November 30. Our $20 annual dues are used for directory printing, newsletter printing and postage, member pin, name tag, and card and admission to our Annual Quilt Show. Click here for an on-line membership form.
Visitors are welcomed! For information about the guild, membership, or this web site, please contact the Guild webmaster.
