The art of Quilting
Society’s Trash will be Our Treasure
Quilting is the art of sewing together layers of fabric to create a padded, multi-layered textile known as a quilt. It combines creativity, craftsmanship & tradition, resulting in beautiful and functional works of art.
Quilting for everyone
Quilting is a way to connect people, to create a sense of community, and to offer ways to work towards an alternative, hopeful, future with meaning, together.
We do this by teaching people to quilt, share stories and give away quilts to young people.
