Mead Quilters are a friendly, welcoming group who meet twice a month in the WI, Mead Hall in Wheathampstead.
On the first Tuesday of each month we meet at 9.30 am for a sewing morning, to work on our own projects or group challenges.
On the 3rd Tuesday of the month we meet at 7.30 pm for talks by speakers or other events.
Our members range from absolute beginners to those with a lot of skill and experience and we enjoy helping and inspiring each other. We would love you to join us.
Mead Quilters are affiliated to the Quilter’s Guild, Region 7.
