The Flying Geese Quilter's Guild was founded in 1985 by a group of about 30 quilters.  In the past 22 years the guild has grown to approximately 300 members. The guild was organized to promote and educate its members and the public in the techniques and methods of creative quilting and fiber arts, to preserve the heritage of quilt making, and to promote quilt related activities.  Regular meetings usually feature nationally known speakers. Members can also attend some speaker's workshops for a small fee.  Other benefits of membership include opportunities to join a friendship groups, check books out from the Guild’s extensive library, and participate in quilt related philanthropic and community education projects. Other activities include a biennial quilt show, biennial quilt auction, and quilt retreats.

Our general membership meetings, on the second Monday evening of each month, offer programs from an extraordinarily talented membership and other locally recognized fiber artists, as well as nationally and internationally recognized guest speakers. Our speakers are quilters, quilt designers, clothing designers, doll makers, and textile designers – in other words, experts who impact our love of quilting. Without fail each month our guild members present a spectacular Show and Tell and a hint of the quilt show we present every other year. Before the meeting and during break there is time to browse our extensive lending library, socialize, and enter opportunity drawings for small wall hangings and door prizes. Between meetings we offer a variety of activities, such as workshops, philanthropy sewing days, and small friendship group meetings.

Meetings are held on the second Monday of the month at 6:30 pm

The Flying Geese Quilt Guild has a new location.

Beginning in May 2008 the Meetings will be held at:

Rancho San Joaquin Middle School

4861 Michelson Dr.
Irvine, CA 92621
