Quilts for Tumbler Ridge
- Feb 22, 2026 09:30 am

Join us for Quilts for Tumbler Ridge, a heartfelt fundraiser bringing our community together to create quilts for those affected by the recent incident in Tumbler Ridge.

Cost: $ FREE
Treasure hunters, this one’s for you. Join us April 18 (10 AM–4 PM) at the Burnside Gorge Community Centre for a one-day fabric marketplace filled with incredible deals, hidden gems, and stash-worthy finds. From quilting cottons to garment fabrics and everything in between, you never know what you’ll discover. Best of all, 10% of all sales support Our Place Society—so every metre you take home gives back to the community. Hosted by The Green Thimble, this is your chance to shop sustainably, save money, and spark your next project.

Cost: $ 5.00
Customize Your Class: Are you and a group of friends wanting to make a pattern, a project, or want to try a new technique, but need some guidance? Contact us with your idea and we'll reserve space and time with an instructor. Or, host a community night with your group to work alongside each other. Space available for teambuilding, low-key parties, and get-togethers. We're here to support you on your sewing journey!
