Founded in 1989 by Ruth Brown to meet the growing interest in quilting in Belleville and the surrounding area, The Quinte Quilters Guild has since grown to include over 100 members. The QQG is a diverse group consisting of both award winning artists as well as many new to the quilt world.
With a dedication to support its members interests, the guild has provided many stimulating workshops, trunk shows and lectures with a variety of teachers and speakers and continues to challenge its members to pursue their quilting passions.
Since its inception, the Quinte Quilters Guild has supported many community endeavours through raffles and donations, both monetary and material. It has also undertaken quilt shows, which have showcased the dedication and talent of its membership.
