  1. We are a growing number of enthusiastic quilters, patchwork piecers and sewer. We are a formally constituted group established about 20 years ago. We welcome beginners through to experienced quilters and sewers. One of our aims is to pass on these valuable skills and inspire others.

    We meet the second Monday of every month from 7pm to 9pm at Lindley Methodist Church, 45 East Street, Lindley, Huddersfield, HD3 3ND.

    At our friendly meetings we enjoy gaining inspiration from other members with our ‘Show & tell’; listening to visiting guest speakers and the opportunity to participate in workshops while socialising together.

    Visits and trips are organised to places of interest including exhibitions, quilting shows and fabric shops. We organise bi-annual Saturday workshops to expand skills, experience and develop individual confidence.

    We also host an annual visit from Doughty Fabric Shop which is well attended. An exhibition of our work is held at Lindley Methodist Church which attracts quilters far and wide. Our last exhibition was in April 2025. Our next exhibition will be due in 2027.

    To join us if you are interested; please use our Instagram account under Website.

History

  1. About 20 years ago when the quilting group we belonged to closed we set up Imperial Quilters at a friends house in which a few of us carried on meeting; we became very well known and other people wanted to join us that we had to find different premises. The group is thriving and we now have a large established membership and our own constitution.

    Quilters come from far and wide to partake in our events; we organise workshops and talks on a regular basis and trips to quilting shows and exhibitions. Everyone is welcome at our group from beginners to the more experienced; we look forward to meeting new people to pass on what is a very valuable and enticing skill.
