The Phoenix Area Quilters Association was formed in 1995. Our goal is to share our love of quilting with others by providing educational opportunities such as guest speakers, classes and workshops. In addition, we offer numerous retreats throughout the year and a quilt show every 2 years. We also have many social groups such as a Machine Embroidery group, Sit and Sews and Sip and Sews. See our calendar for more details.
