Friendship Quilters, Fabric Artists were organized in February of 2003, as a group of friends who share a passion for the fabric arts as well as quilting. For our first meeting, approximately 20 were expected; instead there were thirty-two.
With each meeting the membership grew and it quickly became apparent there was a need in Sun City for a group that pushed the boundaries of quilting as customarily defined. A group that embraced art quilts, portraitures, landscapes, the fantasy world of fabric dolls and the fabric manipulations and embellishments of wearable art. Friendship Quilters, Fabric Artists evolved to fill the need.
The mission of Friendship Quilters, Fabric Artists is to enable each member to further develop their skills, knowledge and talent through the shared camaraderie and support offered in a harmonious atmosphere. We are a group dedicated to stretching our imaginations beyond the quilting boundaries of our predecessors and have fun too!!
