Red River Quilters Workshops
Red River Quilters are passionate about sharing our art with others. And we love to sponsor workshops to foster the love of quilting for now and in the next generation. We organize Saturday workshops throughout the year for our Guild Members & members of the Public to participate in. Workshop topics range from new beginner to advanced quilter & every quilter in between.
We also partner with area shops in order to teach: Shreveport Sewing Center, Sew Chic, and All Brands, Fabric Boutique. Their support is invaluable to us!
