Chiloquilters

Opening reception Sunday, October 4th, noon to 4 PM

Chiloquilters was established in 2001 by a small group of women with the common bond of quilting. Their experience levels ranged from none to many years. From those simple beginnings, the group has accomplished many amazing projects. The first project was a raffle quilt to help raise funds for the Chiloquin Community Center, then under construction. The success of that first effort gave the group the spark they needed to continue doing what they could to help their community.Our members now include quilters of all sewing levels, skilled long-arm quilters, and fabric artists. Some are just learning the quilting process, while others are already award winners. The variety of skills within our group is truly inspiring. We enjoy learning from each other and sharing what we have learned with others. Members also support several local groups by donating Comfort Quilts for children and others in need, plus additional items such as wheelchair lap robes, placemats, and adult bibs.Chiloquilters meet on Thursdays at the community center, and host their annual Quilt Show in late June. They also create a Raffle Quilt each year with the winner being selected during the quilt show. Proceeds from this annual raffle provides financial support to the Chiloquin Community Center, as well as the Two Rivers Art Gallery and the Chiloquin Food Pantry.
