Mid-Del Stitchin’ Sisters Quilt Guild

Mission Statement

The Mid-Del Stitchin’ Sisters Quilt Guild mission is to support and encourage the growth and development of quilting through charity, education, fellowship, and community through educational programs, quilt camps, and weekly sew n’ go groups. 

 

History

Mid-Del Stitchin’ Sisters began with an organizational meeting in May of 2004 followed by the first official meeting in June of 2004. Our inaugural members consisted of CeCe White, President; Margaret Webb, Vice President; DeNita Watters, Recording Secretary; Mary Ann Tate, Correspondence Secretary; and Donna Peebles, Treasurer. 

One of the primary goals of the Guild is to help support various community charities in the Mid-Del area, which includes Midwest City, Del City, Choctaw and other surrounding communities. 

Our initial endeavors included sewing 45 adult sized bibs for the Sweetbriar Nursing Home, 350 Coolie Ties that were sent to troops overseas, and sewing quilts of all sizes for “Binky Patrol” for the local police departments. Today, we are privileged to provide quilts to the Oklahoma VA Palliative Care patients, Oklahoma Children’s Hospital, Eastern Oklahoma County Resource Center, and Positive Tomorrows. 

Through distribution of informational flyers, the Guild grew to approximately 89 members by October of 2006. We continue to promote the Guild in the community by inviting guests to visit a monthly guild meeting to meet members and learn more about the Guild. A typical meeting includes speakers who give talks that are informational, educational, and entertaining, as well as time for our members to “Show n’ Share” projects they have completed. 

In 2024, we are thrilled to be celebrating our 20th Anniversary while continuing to focus on community, charity, and fellowship with the goal of preserving, educating, and promoting the art of quilt making for the next generation. 

We happily invite and encourage you to visit one of our meetings - we would all love to meet you!
