About Us

We are a diverse group of ladies who LOVE quilting!  Our Mission is to further the art and love of quilting in our area.  At the same time we are very involved in many charity projects that support our community.

Our club meets monthly from September to June to share workshops, lectures, "show and tell" and to exchange ideas and knowledge. Meetings are now held on Monday mornings, once a month, at the Calvary Church, Trumbull, CT .  It is usually the second Monday of the month, but please check the calendar.   The Piecemakers also maintain a lending library of quilt related books and materials for it's members and is a non-profit organization. 

Our History
bulletThe Connecticut Piecemakers' Quilt Guild was formed in 1981 by a small group of Trumbull, CT women who gathered in local homes to share their quilting.  Originally named "The Trumbull Piecemakers", the club has grown to about 200 members, who live mostly throughout the State of Connecticut.
