The Oroville Piecemakers Quilt Guild (OPQG) was started in 1980 by a small group of friends who wanted to encourage an interest in quilts and quilting,

and incorporated as a 501(c)(3) in 1999. 

 

The purposes of the guild are to expand the knowledge of quilt-making; promote the appreciation of fine quilts; encourage quilt-making and collecting; sponsor and support quilting activities and quilters' expertise through education, programs and workshops; and provide public service projects for the good of the community.
