The Story of the Consortium Quilt

a Quaker quilt shared by the members of the group

In the late 1990’s a small group of women in a Quaker community in Colorado created a quilt that came to be known as the Consortium Quilt.  Their idea was to auction the quilt to raise money for charity.  However, they also wanted to keep the quilt in the Quaker community. 

How could they do this to make sure that the quilt would remain in their community?  Fortunately in the end, they found a very creative solution.  Read this article in “Quilting Daily” to discover what they did.
