About the WQG

Do you enjoy piecing, quilting, or admiring quilts? Are you interested in learning to paper piece, appliqué, quilt by machine or hand? Do modern quilts, art quilts, landscape quilts or traditional quilts interest you? Are you a beginning or experienced quilter who wants inspiration and the opportunity to perfect your skills? Then the Waterford Quilters Guild is for you!

 

We are a group of  quilters who meet the second Wednesday of the month at the Leesburg Senior Center. Our membership comes from the northern Virginia area but welcome all! We are a 501(c) (3) non-profit Incorporated guild that participates in many local charity events as well as offers dynamic programs, annual raffle quilt, sew and share, learning opportunities, and social events. 

We are an enthusiastic group of individual quilters that welcomes new members and love to share a passion for quilting. No matter your interests, WQG has something to offer.
