There is something for everyone in this guild, from traditional to art quilting, handwork or machine, and every combination you can imagine. Our main charity is Community Quilts thru which we make and donate over 600 quilts per year to local agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Events calendar lists what\u2019s happening and when. Enjoy one of our Second Saturday General Meetings. We meet either in-person, usually at Pleasanton Middle School on Case Ave in Pleasanton or on ZOOM depending on our speakers. The location of the meeting is listed in our newsletter. Our<br>meetings start at 1:30 p.m. but either arrive early or log in a little early to get help with ZOOM, talk to a member, ask questions, make friends etc.&nbsp; We have interesting tables at our in-person meetings where members can take some books out of the Library, buy some recycled quilting or crafting magazines, investigate workshops and ZOOM retreats, drop off a community quilt and pick up a Block of the Month to work on. Membership information and forms are available in the Forms tab, or via the link on this main page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Some of the Outreach Programs AVQ sponsors are:<br>-\u201cQuilting Then and Now\u201d events at the Alviso Adobe Museum<br>-Quilts of Valor donations to area veterans<br>-Community Quilts program<br>-Donations of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit quilts to local hospitals<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We welcome quilters of all skill levels, from learning to sew to professional quilters on the national and international level, and of course we love to have those who just like to admire the beauty of fabric and thread. Hope to see you soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robin Duncan<br>President, 2025-2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amador Valley Quilters, Inc. is a charitable organization under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Next Meeting: May 9, 2026 Time: 1:30 &#8211; 4:00 Location: Zoom May Program Please visit our May 2026 Program Page for details on the program for April. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For upcoming guest speakers, please see our Programs Page.
