WELCOME TO MONTPELLIER QUILTERS
NOW CELEBRATING OUR 33RD YEAR
If you missed our recent Exhibition on the 18th and 19th November 2017, or would like to revisit it, go to Gallery > Exhibitions > Exhibition 2017
Some of our more senior members celebrating a significant birthday.
This is the first quilt made by the group.
About Us
We are a very friendly group with quite a large membership drawn from Cheltenham and its surroundings. We meet twice a month (during term time) to share our enjoyment of anything and everything to do with needles and thread.
Our members have a wide range of interests within this field; everything from patchwork and quilting to embroidery all served up with a little knitting, dressmaking and crochet on the side – these last are all optional extras! Some of our members are complete beginners and others have a wealth of knowledge and experience.
We regularly invite speakers to come and tell us about their work and show examples or occasionally slides and also hold daytime workshops throughout the year where we have the benefit of a tutor for a full day.
We also sometimes have mini demonstrations where a tutor will come and demonstrate a technique that we can have a go at or, perhaps, one of our members will demonstrate some new aspect that they have been following.
We have also recently introduced Sewing Retreat days where we get together for the day to sew our own projects, to talk and to eat cake.
Do visit our gallery pages on this site and have a look at the wide range of work we produce – I would especially recommend the page showing photos of our last Exhibition – 'Celebrating 30 Years' held in November 2014.
If you would like more information you can contact us using the form on the 'Join Us' page. Or why not just come along and visit us – you will find details of our forthcoming meetings on the Programme 2017 page.
This is just one of 6 quilts made by the group for our 2014 Exhibition which were raffled for charity.
