Rogue Valley Piecemakers
Quilting the Fabric of the Community Since 1976
The Rogue Valley Piecemakers Guild brings together quilt lovers of all skill levels to share, learn, and give back. Members gather for "Sit and Stitch" sessions, "Show and Tell," and hands-on demonstrations. The guild creates comfort quilts for those in need, hosts professional workshops, and challenges members with creative projects. Highlights include the annual quilt show and the creation of an "Opportunity Quilt" to support local causes. Every stitch tells a story-of art, tradition, and community.

We meet the first and third Mondays of each month from 9 am to noon at the Fruitdale Grange, 1440 Parkdale Drive, Grants Pass, Oregon. For more information, check out our website at https://www.rvpiecemakers.com/

Every Quilt Tells A Story
Look closely - each quilt holds a story. From carefully chosen fabrics to intricate stitching, quilts have long been a way to remember, honor, and express.

This exhibit invites you to explore how quilters use color, pattern, and texture to share personal memories, cultural traditions, and moments in history. Whether made to celebrate, to comfort, or to preserve a legacy, every quilt you see here speaks in its own unique voice.

Welcome

We're glad you found us and look forward to your visit! Currently we are working on many things around here. Ranging from physically to a lot of background changes!

Newsletter
We are constantly adding people to the newsletter. If you want it and have not received it, please use the bubble below to update your information. We have added the newsletter to the main page (above) for anyone who has not received it. We do apologize if you wrote your email down on our "visitor registration". We do our best to read everyone's handwriting, but we are also human and unfortunately make errors. That being said, if you want to make sure you're information is correct, please use the bubble below and we will correct your information for errors.

Square - Processing & Inventory
We recently changed our POS (Point of Sale) system. Everyday we are processing items that our consignors have with us. For those who do not know - Members of Latimer make and sell items here on consignment. This goes to help keep Latimer open and gives back to the members as well. This has been a slow process and we are working each day at it.

Printer
As of 1/22/2025 we now have a Rioch printer/copier. We can now print the newsletter in house and hoping to make scanning documents much easier. One aspect we plan on developing is to have more education, past newsletters, patterns and historical documents available on the website. While this is a long-term goal; we hope to implement this sooner than later.

Email
Our primary email is - latimer2105@gmail.com

Please know we do NOT use this (latimertextile@centurylink.net) email address as our primary. It shows up from time to time and we are working on removing it from everything.
