History of the Guild

The Baltimore Heritage Quilters' Guild (BHQG) was founded in 1984 by three women who met through the owner of a local quilt shop. They decided to meet in October, and presented "Baltimore's History in Quiltmaking" to interested Baltimoreans. Needless to say, they were pleasantly surprised when sixty people attended! The BHQG was born!

Today, the guild is thriving with approximately 150 members. A diverse range of programs and specialty classes are offered to meet the varying skill levels and interests of the members. Monthly meetings are held from September to June, where a variety of topics is discussed. From "quilting expert" speakers to show-and-tell, the guild is alive and well in Baltimore, today.

If the BHQG sounds like something you'd be interested in, feel free to drop by one of our meetings. They are held at 7.00 p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month at the Woodbrook Baptist Church. Hope to see you (and your quilts) there!
