  • June 3, 2008 -- EBHQ Workshops (and Drop-ins) Going Green
    In an effort to use less paper products, we are requesting workshop attendees to bring their own cup and any lunch utensils that they may need for breaks and lunches to the workshops. Coffee and tea will still be available.

EBHQ is centered in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area. It was founded in 1978 and has almost 600 members.

The purpose of EBHQ is to preserve and continue the traditions, culture and history of quilting; to promote fellowship among interested persons in all aspects of quilting; to contribute to the knowledge of and to promote appreciation of fine quilts; to sponsor and support quilting activities; to encourage quilt making and collection; and to contribute to the growth of knowledge of quilting techniques, textiles, patterns and quilt makers through educational meetings and travel.

EBHQ provides a wide range of activities for its membership. The monthly meetings feature outstanding speakers from all over the quilting world. Workshops are offered on a variety of quilting topics. Twice a month, members can get together and work on projects at "Drop - Ins." Community Service activities are supported by creating quilts for children in need. EBHQ’s quilt show, Voices in Cloth, is a biennial event with the next show schedule for Spring, 2010.
