About Us

The Parksville Quilt House Quilters Guild was founded in 1979. The Guild grew from the small group of students who attended Flo Conconi quilt classes at the Quilt House in Parksville. Flo started teaching quilting classes in the early1970’s when several friends asked her to show them the skills she had retained from her childhood. Regular classes started in about 1975 and members of these classes organized a two-day workshop for Island quilters in 1979.

The guild grew out of this workshop and has been growing ever since. The guild is the second oldest in the Province and it was first on Vancouver Island. Members come from all over the island. The art of quilting has been passed down from generation to generation.
Our members vary in age from young to seniors, with several of the founding members still in attendance. There is no remuneration paid to any guild member or to the executive.

The Guild is solely a non-profit organization, which was formed to educate, maintain and share the art of quilting.
All levels welcome - from beginner to experience quilters.
