Quilters Unlimited (QU) is a nonprofit membership organization of quilters, with all chapters and activities in Northern Virginia.
Founded in 1972, it has 11 chapters, unified by a central Board of Directors. Its members include traditionalists and contemporary
quilters with a range of expertise. The group and at least some of its chapters compiled annual membership directories. In
honor of the organization’s 15th anniversary, its history committee compiled and issued a memorial book, “Quilters Unlimited
Highlights of 15 Years (1988).”
