Welcome Quilters!
The Castle Rock Quilt Club meets the first Tuesday of each month from 6 to 8pm at New Hope Presbyterian Church in Castle Rock, Colorado. Quilters of all levels (and even those of you who simply enjoy quilts) are invited to attend. Each quilt club meeting includes an exciting program, a short business presentation and an inspiring member show and tell.
If you’ve been telling yourself you’re going to “get into” something like this “someday” — today is the day! Please visit us, bring a friend or two and have some fun. Guests are always welcome. (If a paid speaker is presenting, a small guest fee of $5 is charged.) Our members hail from not only Castle Rock, but also Larkspur, Monument, Parker, Elizabeth, Franktown, Sedalia, Littleton, Highlands Ranch and Aurora. Come join us!
Membership costs $30 per year, from August through July. This allows you to participate in various activities including our retreats, social gatherings, charity sews and monthly meetings (in person and, occasionally, by zoom). New members receive our exclusive monthly minutes/newsletter, a name tag, an information folder and lots of encouragement and welcoming smiles.

Well, THAT was fun! Thank you so much to the participants in last month’s Wonky Christmas Tree Block Lotto. With such an unbelievable number of blocks, we were able to put together sets of 20 blocks for EIGHT lucky winners! There was even a bonus set of 13 to give away as well. What a great way to play with improvisation! In 2025, you can forward to learning (or brushing up on) more skills via Block Lotto. Every other month or so, we will pick a block, pick a color palette, and provide print and video instructions. Join the fun! The next round will be announced in January!
The charity committee has collected 21 Bingo quilts for Wellspring and 17 quilts
for the Help & Hope Center. What a huge success for both of these projects! And we will continue to collect donations for next year as well. So keep up the good work!
We need several club members to volunteer to participate in this important committee. Please contact our president if you are interested.
What began as fabric bingo cards for our April activity has turned into the most beautiful works of art — and heart! Thanks to the hard work of volunteers, 21 adults who attend Wellspring Community will receive quilts on November 1 at the ribbon cutting ceremony for Unity on Park, a supported independent living apartment complex.
