Who we are!

The Tiadaghton Quilt Guild is made up of people who have come together to learn and to share their love for the craft and the knowledge of quilting techniques and for the fellowship of others who enjoy the many forms of quilting.

All age groups and skill levels are included, from junior members, age 17 and under, to our senior members.

Among our guild members we have many diverse interests such as appliquéing, hand quilting, machine quilting, piecing and red work embroidery with skill levels from beginners to advanced quilters.

We hope to be able to educate and help anyone who is interested in either learning or advancing his or her knowledge of quilting.  We have many fine teachers as well as artists among our guild membership.
 

History of Tiadaghton Quilt Guild

The Tiadaghton Quilt Guild was established in North Central Pennsylvania's West Branch Valley in August of 1990.  The goal of the guild is to promote quilt making and quilt preservation in Pennsylvania.  The guild took its name from the Tiadaghton Elm Tree in the Jersey Shore area.  It was under this tree on July 4, 1776, that the Fair Play Men met to endorse the proposition under discussion at the Continental Congress by making a formal Declaration of Independence.  Thus, the Fair Play Men cast votes for liberty at the identical hour in history that delegates of the American Colonies were performing the same act in Philadelphia 200 miles away.
