"We're Enchanted With Quilting!"
Join NMQA's Community Service Committee every Tuesday to cut, sew, & quilt! Pick up kits and drop off work! Stay the entire time! Everyone welcome!
NMQA members donate more than 500 quilts per year to Albuquerque’s sick and needy children and adults. Community Service is a cornerstone of the organization! Our mission is to give the gift of warmth and love through beautiful handmade, lap-sized quilts.
We meet every Tuesday from 9:30 - 1:30. Bring your machine and favorite tools. We have the fabric. There are two restaurants at either end of the mall or you can bring your lunch to the refrigerator in our area.
Join NMQA's Fundraising Committee every second Saturday of the month! Everyone welcome!
NMQA's fundraising committee coordinates all the plans for our major fundraiser at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta and NMQA's famous balloon raffle quilt, as well as other fundraising opportunities throughout the year.
We meet once a month, plus host sew-ins to work on crafts for sale.
Join your NMQA friends for Thursday's Zoom Sew-In! Join at any time and stay as long as you wish!
See you on line!

History of Quilting
with Carolyn Mitchell
Carolyn Mitchell is a proud 20-year member of the Pecos Valley Quilters in Roswell New Mexico, where she first started quilting. Quilting is now her passion! Carolyn will give a presentation of the history of quilting and will be sharing her quilts.
Carolyn feels very fortunate to have been raised in Dallas, Texas by a mother who could sew beautifully, which gave Carolyn the opportunity at age 10 to start making her own clothes. She attended Texas Tech University, and then obtained a degree in home economics education from Utah State University.

She continues to teach and share her knowledge. Along the pathway, she has learned many tricks and concepts, many from her students.
