Southern Bell Quilting Clubs

"Old Time Music Style"
Keeping Heritage Alive through Quilting 

Quilting may have been part of the past, but it is quickly making a big come back. Competition is great and these talented sewers gather from all over the world for some of the biggest shows of the year. 

When I was a teenager there was a quilting or "Sewing Circle" at our church. Ladies would gather once a week to work on quilts for missionaries. I would watch, but never attempted to work on the quilt. So I never learned. 

Even though I am not a grandmother, I’d like to share with you a little bit of the Southern Belle Grandmothers Clubs of America handiwork, along with my first attempt at quilting. 

Take a look at the beautiful artwork on each piece and see if you could select a winner. You may also enjoy viewing the Basic Quilting for Beginners and International Quilters Conventions videos.   

National Quilting Day is always celebrated the third Saturday in March. 

 

Maybe you don’t know the Living God that I know, but would like to have this kind of favor in your life also.  Click on the above tab “Tell Me” for more information on becoming a child of the Savior.

  1. Beautiful. I finally finished a bed cover I started quilting two years ago, all by hand. I am resting now but the design of this quilt you display here is so beautiful.
