quilting circle

Stitchers meeting regularly

A quilting circle is a group of people, traditionally women, who gather regularly to make quilts together.

The work is social as much as practical—conversation and community are as important as the sewing.

By extension, quilting circle can describe any close-knit group that meets for a shared domestic or creative activity: The book club had become her quilting circle.
