The Quilt Association
The Quilt Association is a prominent organisation dedicated to the art and craft of quilting in the UK. Established with the vision of promoting quilting as a valuable cultural heritage, the association serves as a hub for quilters of all skill levels. Our mission is to inspire creativity and foster a community where quilting enthusiasts can share their passion.
We offer a variety of resources including workshops, exhibitions, and competitions that encourage both novice and experienced quilters to enhance their skills. Membership provides access to exclusive content, tutorials, and networking opportunities with fellow quilters across the nation.
In addition to educational initiatives, The Quilt Association actively engages in preserving the history of quilting through research and documentation. We collaborate with museums and cultural institutions to showcase the significance of quilts in British history.
Our annual quilt show attracts thousands of visitors, featuring stunning displays from talented artisans and providing a platform for emerging designers. Community involvement is at the heart of our activities, as we believe in giving back through charitable projects that utilise quilting to support various causes.
As we look to the future, The Quilt Association aims to expand its reach, embracing new technologies and trends in quilting while remaining true to our roots. Join us in celebrating the beauty and craftsmanship of quilting, and become part of a vibrant community that values creativity and collaboration.
