Current Activities and Future Plans

Our members plan to continue working to help the Maryland Historical Society (MHS), Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Quilters' Hall of Fame, Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) and other institutions on their quilt-related programs and work individually and together to produce high-quality appliqué art.

  • Doing conservation work on selected quilts in the collection of the DAR Museum and Catonsville Historical Society.

  • Helping historical societies and historic houses mount quilt exhibits to attract members and raise funds.

  • Offering quilt block design challenges to all members.

  • Arranging classes with well-known teachers.

  • Taking field trips of interest to members

  • Arranging hospitality gatherings at larger quilt shows.

  • Lovely Lane Methodist Church Museum's Patterns and Quilt Show Information

We believe that our society has made many valuable contributions to the quilting community, with many more to come because of the involvement of our large and talented membership.  We are honored to be so involved in the preservation and continuation of textile art history.
