Build Community

The NYC Metro Modern Quilters Guild is a welcoming space for modern quilters of all skill levels and backgrounds to connect, create, and be inspired. Together, we share ideas, explore new techniques, and celebrate the joy of quilting in community. We would love to have you join us!

Our Story

The New York City Metro Modern Quilters Guild was established in 2010 to offer a place for quilters to connect and create. At around 100 members, we are an inclusive guild and gladly welcome everyone with an interest in quilt making – including beginners, experienced quilters and everyone in between. We support all styles of quilt making and our guild is a place where everyone is free to explore their own creativity.

Please note: We are NOT affiliated with the Modern Quilt Guild (MQG). We are not a local chapter of the MQG. We are an independent guild, operating within our own organization’s by laws. Therefore, joining our guild, will NOT give you access or membership to the MQG.
