Volunteer Opportunities

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” – Helen Keller

Planning has started for the 2026 Quilt Show “Fall into Quilts”.  We need volunteers for the various committees.  Contact anyone on the Quilt Show Committee or anyone on the Board for further information.

The PPQG was  formed  in 1990  by a small group who shared  an interest in quilting and who wanted to learn from each other, have fun and enjoy each other’s companionship.  In addition to increasing their own quilting skills, they established goals of sharing their knowledge with others and giving back to their community through charitable giving.

Come Join Us

Guild meetings are generally held the last Monday of each month from 7:00-9:00 p.m., with Mini-Demonstrations and Social Hour from 6:00 to 7:00. Our location is the Rivertree Church, 3113 Lansing Avenue in Jackson, Michigan. In addition to the business portion of the meeting, we sponsor a presentation or activity designed to help broaden our quilting experiences and knowledge. Another important part of the meeting is “Show and Tell” where members share their current projects and discuss successes, as well as consult others for solutions to quilting problems. provide the opportunity for our members to give back to our community.
