Looking to try a mindful, relaxing and creative new hobby?
Come and join our friendly and welcoming quilting group.
Though quilting originated strictly as a practical solution to keep bodies warm and repurpose worn fabric scraps, it has evolved into a medium for self-expression and community art.
Across cultures and centuries – from medieval armor padding to early American coverlets – makers began infusing functional stitchwork with intricate geometric patterns, symbolism, and storytelling.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, quilting bees transformed painstaking handiwork into a shared social ritual, allowing women a rare public platform to express political views, record family genealogies, and pass down cultural heritage through motifs.
Work on your existing projects or start something new.
Whether you are just starting on your quilting journey, or even if you have lots of experience, our group is here to share ideas and learn new skills.
