African American Quilt Circle

The African American Quilt Circle is a community of women who come together to create quilting art that reflects African American history, culture, and personal stories. These quilting groups often serve as spaces for cultural expression, preserving traditions, and fostering fellowship. Through shared craftsmanship, members honor their heritage, share skills, and communicate collective experiences, making quilting both a creative activity and a meaningful cultural practice. The circle often embodies themes of resilience, history, and identity, using fabric and design as a visual language to tell stories important to the community.
