EnglishWhat Is kscapitalquilters.com?
Updated
kscapitalquilters.com is the official website of the Kansas Capital Quilters Guild (KCQG), a quilting guild based in Topeka, Kansas. The guild began in June 1986 when seven quilters decided Topeka needed its own guild, and it has since grown to more than 150 members. The site serves both as a member resource hub and as a public entry point for anyone interested in the guild's activities, quilt shows, and community programs.
Who the Site Is For
The site is useful in two main situations:
- Current and prospective members who need membership information, dues, applications, newsletters, meeting minutes, bylaws, and job descriptions.
- Visitors and quilting enthusiasts who want to learn about the guild, see quilt show results, browse featured quilt artists, or find community events.
If you are looking for a commercial quilt shop, longarm quilting services, or online fabric sales, this is not that kind of site. It is a volunteer-run guild website.
What You Can Find on the Site
The navigation reflects the guild's organizational life. Key sections include:
| Area | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Membership | Benefits of membership, membership dues, and the membership application |
| Member resources | Members area, newsletters, meeting minutes, bylaws and policies, job descriptions |
| Programs and groups | Programs, Grapevine groups, Heartland Quilt Network, speaker contract |
| Quilt shows | Show rules, entry form, 2026 KCQG Quilt Show, 2025 KCRQF, and winners archives from 2014 onward |
| Special projects | Opportunity quilts (2014–2026), challenges and challenge winners (2014–2026), silent auction |
| Community | Community page, SNCO Fair entry form, appraisal forms, how to add a sleeve |
| Contact | Contact page and links |
The depth of the archives is notable: quilt show winners, challenge winners, and opportunity quilts are documented year by year, which makes the site a record of the guild's activity over more than a decade.
How to Use It
If you are considering joining: start with the Membership section. Review "Benefits of Membership" and "Membership Dues," then complete the "Membership Application." The site also lists a "Payment Forms" page, which is where payment-related forms are collected.
If you want to enter or attend a quilt show: check "Quilt Show Rules" and "Quilt Show Entry Form" before the show. The site lists a 2026 KCQG Quilt Show page, and past winners pages show what the guild has exhibited historically.
If you are a member: the Members Area, Newsletters, and Minutes sections are the routine destinations, along with Bylaws and Policies for governance questions.
If you are browsing out of interest: the Featured Quilt Artists page and the challenge and opportunity quilt galleries give a sense of the guild's work without needing to log in or join.
Practical Notes
- The site footer reads "ALL rights reserved 2017-2026," and the content includes pages dated through 2026, so the guild maintains it actively.
- Some areas, such as the Members Area, are presumably restricted to members, but the site does not state login requirements explicitly on the pages summarized here.
- The site includes an embedded map with zoom and drag instructions ("Click the plus and minus signs to zoom in and out. Click and drag on map to move"), which is likely how the guild communicates its meeting location.
- Dues amounts and specific fees are not stated in the available page content; check the Membership Dues and Payment Forms pages directly for current figures.
In short, kscapitalquilters.com is the working website of a long-established Topeka quilting guild: part membership portal, part event calendar, and part public showcase of quilts, shows, and community projects.
