Welcome Quilters
The Northern Lake County Quilters Guild (NLCQG) is an organization of enthusiastic quilters from northeast Illinois and southeast Wisconsin. We meet the first Wednesday of the month at the Antioch Senior Center (Dolly Spiering Community Center), 817 Holbek, Antioch IL 60002. For more information, click here.
We offer a variety of programs and socialization activities. In addition, we have classes presented by our members as well as nationally known teachers, activities such as swaps and UFO sewing days, and yearly challenges where we stretch our quilting skills. Whether you’re an experienced quilter or you’re new to the craft, we’d love to have you join us as we explore the art and education of quilting. Visitors are always welcome. (There is a $10 charge per meeting for guests and a $10 credit will be applied to your membership if you decide to join.)
