This Moose Jaw Quilt Guild was established as a result of a quilt show in the summer of 1990. In June 1990 seven ladies met to discuss the formation of a guild. They were Bernice Robinson, Marg Shepley, Ruth McIntyre, Hilda Krause, Adeline King, Edna Mowchenko and Marj Nicholle. A registration-coffee night was held on September 6, 1990. During the following months membership grew to 87. The Guild set up a constitution and incorporated under the Saskatchewan Non-Profit Organizations Art. The first executive were president Bernice Robinson, vice-president Ruth McIntyre, secretary Marg Shepley, treasurer Marj Nicolle, program co-ordinator Marg Shepley. The annual membership fee was set at $20.00. The meetings were held on the first and third Thursdays of each month at St. Michael and All Angels Church Hall. Beginner classes were conducted the first eight meetings. On March 21, 1991, the Guild decided on the name “Prairie Hearts”, and the members guild badge was a crazy patch heart.
