Welcome

Clamshell Quilt Guild was organized in 1989 to bring together people interested in:

  • Preserving the art of quilting
  • Learning new methods of quilting
  • Sharing expertise among the members
  • Meeting and making friends with other quilters

Our members come from eastern Connecticut and southern Rhode Island. Meetings are held at 6:30 PM on the second Wednesday of each month at the Waterford Community Center, 24 Rope Ferry Road, Waterford, CT.
