About
Join us for the 10th anniversary display of work by the North East Modern Quilt Guild (NEMQG).
The NEMQG formed in May 2015 when a small group of likeminded sewists came together. Since 2017, the group have met at Shipley Art Gallery.
The NEMQG is part of a thriving worldwide community of modern quilters and is a not-for-profit organisation, looking to not only promote the modern ethos in quilting style and techniques, but also looking to educate and support the wider community through its projects.
Over the years the NEMQ has donated group-made quilts to local community groups, as well as raised funds for northeast charities and organisations including North East Museums.
The support that the guild receives from the Shipley is invaluable and the group are delighted that the gallery is celebrating the 10th anniversary of the NEMQG with them.
