Drop In Community Quilting Workshop

Together-together is a collaborative, evolving quilt project by Carlee Latimer, featured in the exhibition Find Your Quilt. Throughout the exhibition, visitors were invited to interact with the piece by completing the prompt “Quilts Are… ____” using interchangeable letters displayed in the gallery. Each response was temporarily spelled out in the quilt’s pockets and captured with a Polaroid—becoming part of its ongoing story. These contributions have been incorporated into the final version of the quilt.

Together-together is ready for even more hands. Find your flow as you add your stitches to this collaborative quilt-in-progress. Come connect, create, and be part of the story, one stitch at a time—all levels of sewing experience welcome. This workshop invites participants to help guide the quilt-in-progress to its closing chapter. In this session, we’ll focus on finishing techniques—binding edges, reinforcing seams, adding final marks—and honoring the accumulated labor of many makers.
