Journal Quilts
Each January, members are invited to commit to making one small quilt each month for the whole year. This challenge has been running since 2007. The format changes each year to add interest. This year there is no set size but each quilt must be no smaller than 6" no larger than 12". See details here
See previous other formats here.
A proportion of the quilts are shown at various quilt shows, most recently in Manchester, Glasgow , Birmingham, and London.

Summer School
Each year Contemporary Quilt organizes one weekend workshop for members. A retreat is held at the same time for members wishing to find time and space to work on their own projects. Unfortunately this year's (2021) Summer School had to be cancelled but there are plans for 2022
Contemporary Quilt Groups
Our membership is very widely spread and, indeed, we have a number of international members. There are Contempoary Quilt groups around the country to provide opportunities for members to meet up and share their expertise and talents.
