Hillsborough Community Quilting Circle

Community Connections

A welcoming Quilting Circle at the Hillsborough Library offering a relaxed and creative space for quilters of all quilting levels to work on projects, share, and enjoy conversation with fellow makers.

The Quilting Circle meets twice a month and provides a welcoming, hands-on space for quilters to gather, work on their own projects, share ideas, and enjoy the company of others who share an interest in quilting. Participants of varying experience levels are welcome; however, attendees should have basic sewing machine skills and some familiarity with quilting techniques. This is not a beginner sewing or quilting class.

Six sewing machines provided by the library will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. If all machines are in use, participants will need to bring their own sewing machine. Attendees are responsible for setting up and taking down the machines. An ironing board, iron, and cutting mat will be available for shared use. Participants should bring their own scissors, needles, pins, rotary cutter, and any other quilting tools or notions they prefer, along with their own quilting project and pattern.

Very limited instruction will be available, although participants may have opportunities to share knowledge and offer occasional assistance to one another. Attendees should be comfortable working independently and have the basic skills necessary to complete their own projects.

A waiver will be provided and must be signed by each participant or, in the case of a minor, their parent or guardian.
