About
Join the creative community called Busy Bee Quilting Group. Quilting isn't just about making beautiful and useful pieces of art — it's about bringing people together, sharing ideas, and creating a vibrant, collaborative community. The Busy Bee Quilting Group 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. You’ll learn, laugh, and create alongside others who share your passion. We’re here to help beginners with guidance and support and inspire experienced quilters with new ideas and techniques.
In this supportive atmosphere, you'll be able to do as you please or experiment with the "Monthly Method Buzz." And, you'll get “fun homework” to keep you progressing between classes.
Come and be part of the quilting revival! We’d love to join you on your quilting journey and watch your creativity bloom. Whether you’re here to learn, create, or make friends, the Busy Bee is the place to be.
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.
