  The group meets regularly on the second Tuesday of each month at the Island Lutheran Church from 10 am until 2 pm. Membership can come for the entire day or stop by to drop off or pick up supplies. Workshop days include tasks ranging from sewing “sandwiches,” to pressing fabric, cutting fabric for kits, and pairing fabric with tops. So, there are plenty of opportunities to help that do not always mean dragging your sewing machine in!

• Membership Meeting and Lecture. AMERICAN QUILTS – 250+ YEARS OF CLOTH, COMFORT AND CREATIVITY

  • When
    January 21, 2027
  •  
    12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
  • Location
    Island Lutheran Church, 4400 Main Street Hilton Head Island

  Lecture. AMERICAN QUILTS – 250+ YEARS OF CLOTH, COMFORT AND CREATIVITY

  Description:  As all of us know, quilts are an expression of art and comfort and love, and they tell the history, the stories and the cultures of the men and women who create them.  Quilts are displayed in museums all over the world, and anyone with basic sewing skills and an urge for self-expression can make a quilt.  

  Ronnie Liebowitz and Debra Hausrath are enthusiasts when it comes to the history of quilts, the stories they tell, and the women (and men) who made them.  Using PowerPoint slides and actual vintage and antique quilts from their collections, they will present a brief romp through the history of quilts in America from the late 18th century to today.  They will also touch on the development of patterns, machinery, fabric and methods if time allows.  

  
  

  
  

  They presented this class last winter for OLLI at the USCB Hilton Head campus and will giving it again at the Bluffton campus in February 2027.  You can enjoy it for free through PQG!

  The interactive workshop will explore these "old fashioned" blocks (Bright Hopes, Hexigons, Little Dutch Girl (aka Sunbonnet Sue), Log cabin , Bow Tie, and suggest different ways of making them. Patterns or templates will be available for Bright Hopes,Hexigons, Little Dutch Girl and Bow Tie.

  Instruction will be interspersed with very personal connections to the blocks/quilts and the persons who made the quilts you will see. The quilts cover four generations of my family in Virginia.

  Both machine and hand piecing are part of the story so come prepared for both. Whether you choose to coordinate fabrics to make the blocks as a sampler or use the opportunity to make "orphan" blocks is an individual decision.

  Fun and learning will be the theme for the day!!
