The Orchard Valley Quilters Guild meets every Tuesday morning from 9 a.m. to noon from September through May at the Okanagan Mission Hall (corner of Lakeshore and DeHart) in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. Click here for map.
Our meetings provide members with friendship, support, inspiration and encouragement. We welcome quilters and fabric artists of all levels of expertise. Our members practice traditional, modern, hand, machine, and art quilting. Meetings are a great place to learn, socialize and exchange ideas.

Over 500 quilts were donated last year by the Guild!
Our members made nearly 400 quilts for the Neonatal Intensive Care last year.
The pandemic did not stop our members and although the meetings were cancelled in person from December to June, the NICU quilts reached our Donation Program and were donated to the hospital.
Quilts were also distributed to the Kelowna Community Resources (Kids Count). the West Kelowna Health Unit, the Salvation Army, the Women's Shelter and Harmony House
Quilters are so generous!
