About Us
This Group started as a quilting group affiliated to Contemporary Quilt and named Contemporary Quilters West in 2013. As such, it was extremely successful, attracting a wide range of experienced quilting artists. Artists develop, and Group Membership changes. To reflect this dynamic and the more diverse nature of our artists’ work, the Group’s name has been amended to CQ West to retain our brand. This will enable the Group to encompass both the current skills and abilities of Group Members and enable their future development.
The Group meet six times a year in Saltford, between Bath and Bristol, to discuss ways of increasing our professionalism and promoting our work.
