In 2006, Devin L put an ad in the local paper looking for women who would like to quilt together and share ideas. Nine women answered the ad: Mary T, Marnie L, Pat L, Jean R, Dixie L, Susan G, Karen H, Devon L and Brenda S.  Their first meeting was at the upstairs room at the Airdrie Co-Op and the rest is history. In 2011, the Airdrie and District Quilt Guild (ADQG) became a not-for-profit organization, and is still meeting regularly and welcoming people who love to quilt or want to learn.

In 2011, the Guild became a Not-For-Profit and continues to give back to the community through donations, a bi-annual quilt show, and through the sharing of quilting. New members are always welcome.<\/span><\/p><\/span><\/font><\/span>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Mission:\n\n\n\n

To promote quilting by sharing knowledge and experience through mentorship and educational workshops and to give back to our community by providing quilts to local charitable organizations.<\/span><\/p><\/span><\/font><\/span>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGuild Membership Fees\n\n\n\n
