Welcome to Chapter #206
Learn More & Sign up Here!
We are so excited to be your Seattle area Quiltbound Chapter! We are looking forward to meeting everyone and sharing all the fun activities we have planned for throughout the year.
Ok, but what is Quiltbound?
Quiltbound is a creative quilting world for adventurous makers — a place to learn new skills, make meaningful projects, find your people, and take the scenic route through quilting.
A cozy quilting club for makers who want fresh inspiration, fun monthly themes, and a community to sew alongside. Inside the Club, you’ll get a free badge each month, fresh member content in your inbox, access to past badge resources, and a growing library of quilt patterns and projects to explore anytime. Using the Circle community you will be able to interact with members across the country and overseas about our shared love of quilting.
And a Club Chapter?
A Quiltbound Club Chapter is a local gathering of quilters who want more than just finishing projects—they want connection, creativity, and a reason to show up.
Our meetings aren’t just about earning badges, although they are fun, they’re about acknowledging the new skills you learned as you continuously hone your craft. They’re about showing off what you’ve made and are still making with likeminded individuals who can instantly understand and recognize all the thought and work that you’ve put into your projects. It’s a place where you can get advice when you’re struggling or just support that you will be able to figure it out. And sometimes they’re about laughing at the silly mistakes you made, knowing that at some point we all have probably done the same. (Or will do in the future.) It’s not about fixating on perfection (you decide what level of perfection you want, although we may try and talk you down at times) or making something because you feel obligated to. We create because we enjoy the process – if all we wanted was a blanket then we would just buy one. And there’s definitely no Quilt Police here!
You do need to be a member in good standing in order to attend in person events. This means you are up to date on your dues using a monthly or yearly subscription plan. (You can sign up by clicking on the link below.)
Quiltbound membership dues are in addition to meeting/class fees. Meeting fees go towards enhancing the in person experience which may include guest speakers or supplies.
June's Badge: Free Motion Quilting
The Free Motion Quilting Badge recognizes the development of quilting skills that go beyond straight-line stitching. This badge introduces Scouts to the technique of free motion quilting (FMQ), where the quilter moves the fabric freely under the needle to create continuous designs.
You can register for either meeting by clicking on the link below.
