About Us

The Cascade Quilt Guild of Akron, OH was established in March of 1986, by a small group of interested quilters.  Since then it has grown to over 50 members ranging in ages from their 20's to their 80's!

Meetings are usually held at 7 PM on the third Thursday of every month at the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, 50 N. Prospect St. in downtown Akron.  Meetings usually consist of announcements, a door prize, a bundle bonanza lottery, and show and tell.  After a short break we then feature a program led by a Speaker or a guild member.  These topics are chosen by members requests.

The guild  organizes "Sewcials" where we meet at the church on a Saturday, for sewing, finishing UFO's, working on charity/service projects and a fun time being with other quilters.  We have a potluck lunch at Noon.  We usually meet from 9 AM to about 3 PM.

We organize challenges, exchanges, and special classes and demonstrations.  We have also gone on retreats, bus trips to national shows and conventions, shop hops and off premise classes.  We try to fill the needs of our membership.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, feel free to drop by a meeting!.  We'd love to meet you!
