Eco-Stitch Society



Welcome to the Eco-Stitch Society, where creativity meets sustainability in every stitch! Do you want the community and support of a guild, but you aren't a quilter? Though quilters are also welcome! Our club is building a community of makers passionate about upcycling and sustainable sewing practices. Whether you're a seasoned seamstress or just starting out, Eco-Stitch Society offers a supportive space to share ideas, techniques, and inspiration. From transforming thrifted garments into stylish new pieces to repurposing fabric scraps into beautiful quilts and accessories, to zero-waste patterns and more, our meetings are filled with innovative projects and eco-conscious crafting tips. Join us as we stitch together a greener, more sustainable future, one repurposed thread at a time!

These social meetings will be the second Tuesday of each month and will comprise of:

  • Short presentation or workshop on topic - see topic schedule below
  • Topic discussion
  • Announcements that any members would like to share of relevant events or news
  • Show & Share - Bring your finished makes related to the topic, or not related to the topic at all!
  • Stitch, laugh, drink tea, eat snacks
    • Projects you would like advice on from your fellow Society Members
    • Hand-sewing project you can work on during and/or after the program. Program may or may not include hands-on activity.
