Welcome from the LMQG Co-Presidents
Welcome to the Lancaster Modern Quilt Guild, your hub for modern quilting in Lancaster County and the surrounding area. We typically meet the 1st Tuesday of each month at 7 PM either at Ridgeview Mennonite Church, 3723 Ridge Rd, Gordonville, PA 17529 or virtually via Zoom. Check the Events tab and/or the events summary card shown at the bottom of this page for detailed meeting information.
We are a diverse group of people–with skills in sewing and needlecraft–but we share a passion for quilting, specifically modern quilting.
Our Lancaster guild formed in 2016, and is part of The Modern Quilt Guild, a community of over 15,000 members around the world. Our mission is to support and encourage the growth and development of modern quilting through art, education, and community.
Our members are the life of our guild. We thrive on their involvement and commitment to our organization. We encourage their participation through monthly opportunities to learn and share. We are always open to volunteers joining through our committees and task forces.
Why do I belong to this group?
I love to sew, whether hand sewing with a needle or creating with a sewing machine. I love to design modern quilts, and learn about others like myself who are passionate about fabric, thread, color, and design. This group has opened a door to a wealth of new information for me, while creating friendships and a sense of community that adds joy to my life. We can laugh and share and learn from each other as we support each other on our quilting journey.
