About
Quilting isn't just about making beautiful and useful pieces of art—it's about bringing people together, sharing ideas, and creating a vibrant community! The Quilter's Busy Bee is designed to foster connection, creativity, and fun as we explore the colorful world of quilting together. Whether you're an experienced quilter or new to the craft, this is a space for everyone to enjoy the magic of art, color, texture, and design. Our focus is on community, creativity, and collaboration—you’ll learn, laugh, and create alongside others who share your passion. Each Busy Bee day will allow you to do as you please, or experiment with the Monthly Method Buzz
Why join? This isn't your grandma's quilting circle! We're redefining quilting, making it fresh, exciting, and full of possibilities. If you've ever thought quilting was a thing of the past, think again! Quilts are now powerful expressions of personal style and creativity.
What's the Monthly Method Buzz? In December we'll feature Improv Curves.
