We will reopen on January 7.

Quilting Facts

The history of quilting dates back to at lease 3400 BC. The word quilt comes from the latin word culcita which means stuffed sack.

Quilts known as freedom quilts or quilt codes were used to communicate secret messages and guide escaping slaves on the Underground Railroad. 

A forgotten fact about quilting is that it grew in popularity out of necessity among soldiers during the Civil War, a show of practical importance of quilting to the soldier's survival.

Quilting is good for your health. First and foremost it is a great stress reliever. It improves your cognitive abilities. It boosts creativity and encourages you to think outside the box. It can have a positive impact on your emotional well being. It can boost your mood and increases feeling of happiness and fulfillment.
