'Look What I Made'

Exhibition of works by Wicklow Patchwork Group.

Wicklow Patchwork Group is delighted to be holding its 2018 Exhibition in the Signal Arts Centre, Bray from Monday 10th – Sunday 22nd July. The Exhibition will be opened by Valerie Cox, Freelance Journalist & Writer, on Thursday 12th July from 7-9pm.

The Group first met in the spring of 2014 and have been meeting every month since. Today, we have over 100 members largely from Wicklow, South Dublin and Wexford. We are a group of likeminded people whose aim is to share our love of patchwork and quilting among ourselves and with others. We welcome members of all standards, from the interested beginner to those who have many years of experience and are more than happy and willing to share their knowledge and wisdom with all!

At our meetings we have guest speakers and demonstrations given by our members. We also hold regular workshops for members to improve their skills and learn new techniques. Visitors are always welcome to our meetings which are held in the Community Hall, Newtownmountkenndy on the third Saturday of each month.

“Look What I Made” represents the diversity of work of the members of the group from the enthusiastic beginner to the very experienced quilter. WPG will be known in the area for the Quilt Fest which is held in Newtownmountkennedy, in conjunction with Appletree Crafts, every second year.

A raffle will be held during the exhibition for a collaborative quilt made by members in aid of our 2018 charity, The Wicklow Hospice Foundation.
