Reston

Reston QU covers the Reston/Herndon/Sterling area of Northern Virginia.  We are an open community of quilters sharing a variety of skill levels, quilting techniques and styles, and interests in creativity. 

We meet twice a month in the evening, and welcome visitors and anyone interested in learning about our organization.  The second Tuesday each month is our business meeting with Show & Tell of members projects.  The 4th Tuesday of each month is a program meeting to offer outside speakers or special events.  We have standard meeting times and places, however, please check the individual calendar of events for the most current information. 

A Weekly Quilting Bee is available at the Herndon Fortnightly Library with space and tools for sewing, cutting, designing and sharing quilting with an open community of fellow quilters.  The space is open to the public from 10 AM - 2 PM each week.  

Throughout the year, RQU offers many additional opportunities for members thru:

  • Retreats at local venues
  • Quilting bees and sew-in gatherings at local libraries
  • Workshops for our program speakers
  • Community charity projects

    Beth, with EvaPaige Quilt Designs, is an author, scrappy pattern designer, and national quilting instructor.  Her penchant for scraps and her need to use as many fabrics as possible in her quilts led her in 2017 to develop the Accordion Sewn HSTs method of creating half square triangles that don't have a match and yet waste no fabric.  She will present this technique, quilts using this technique, and how "ordering" the accordions can lead to the creation of whole blocks and quilts from a single accordion.  For more information, check out her website at evapaigequilts.com.

    Zoom link will be sent via email to RQU members.
