Today the Sunshine Coast Quilters’ Guild is the umbrella organization for seven local community quilt groups from Pender Harbour to Gibsons, with a membership of 175.

We continue to meet eight days throughout our Guild year, from September to May at the Holy Family Parish Hall in West Sechelt (5700 Nickerson Road). Our meetings consist of Mini-Workshops, Business Meetings, Show and Tell, and a Program.
