About Programs

Each month, Pioneer Quilters Guild  members and guests enjoy a variety of speakers, activities, and  workshops. Our 2025 schedule is below.
 

Workshops and other class  opportunities are held at Shepherd of the Sierra Church on Barton Road in  Loomis. They go from 9:30 am – 3:30 pm (with set up beginning at 9:00)   on the Tuesday following our Monday Guild meeting. The fee for  professional workshops is $45; occasionally there will be an additional  supply fee. Fees are due at the time of registration and are refundable  up to 30 days before the workshop or if the class is canceled. From 30  days to the day before the workshop, fees will be refunded only if someone from a waiting list can fill the vacancy. 

Members of other guilds are welcome to attend any workshop where there is room.

A reminder and general workshop  materials list will be emailed to attendees a few days before the  workshop. A specific supply list (relative to each workshop) will be  given out when the fee is paid. 

Other guilds in our area also have  speakers and workshops that may be of interest to our members, and many  welcome non-members in any class that is not full. 

For further information, please contact Candy Brown or Phyllis Smith.
