    Camp Bluebird is a retreat for cancer survivors held at the Bonclarken Conference Centre in Flat Rock where the guild offers 3 sewing sessions to the campers:  A morning session on September 16th from 9:00 am to 11:30 am and two afternoon sessions on September 15th and 16th from 1:00 pm to 4:30 pm.  We need10 volunteers each session to provide instruction, encouragement and support to the campers. If you sign up for both sessions on the 16th, lunch will be provided.  This event was such a success that we have been asked to provide more volunteers so we can accommodate more campers.  

    The guild provides everything that the campers need to make a small project that they can take home. This year's project is a fabric basket with handles in their choice of fabrics that reflect this year's theme - "Superheros, soaring ahead to a brighter future".  Many previous volunteers have reported back that this event is their favorite and how rewarding this event is for them. It is also a great way to connect with other members of the guild. Please consider volunteering for this worthwhile event. Thank You!

    Bringing the Virginia Quilt Museum to You!

    With Alicia Thomas, Executive Director

    Virginia Quilt Museum


    Alicia Thomas joined the Virginia Quilt Museum as Executive Director in September of 2021. A lifelong museum lover and casual crafter, she is proud to be part of the Virginia Quilt Museum. Since joining VQM Alicia has led numerous projects including building a new website, increased revenue by 150%, and managed the 2024 move of the museum to the historic Silver Lake Mill.

    Alicia has spent the past 16 years in the mid-Atlantic region working in a variety of government and nonprofit organizations. She has worked at the Capitol Visitors Center, The Rosenbach Museum & Library, and the Wildlife Habitat Council in a variety of roles.

    Alicia was raised in southern Michigan and has a BA in American History from Michigan State University. She attended graduate school at the University of North Carolina Wilmington where she earned an MA in Public History and met her husband Jonathan. Alicia and Jonathan are thrilled to be living in Harrisonburg and are enjoying exploring all the area has to offer.

    The Virginia Quilt Museum cultivates and preserves the quilting arts in Virginia through exhibitions, programs, and collecting.  VQM opened in 1995 and welcomes over 6,000 quilters and quilt lovers a year.  In 2024 the museum relocated to the historic Silver Lake Mill in Dayton, Virginia.  VQM collects quilts made in, or related to, the commonwealth of Virginia and currently owns over 300 quilts.  The oldest quilt in the Museum's collection is from 1806 and the newest is from 2018.  Along with collecting VQM hosts between 6 to 10 exhibitions a year. VQM strives to showcase all of the styles and eras of quilting in their exhibition from historic pieces to contemporary art quilts and everything in between. VQM also offers a number of programs and events throughout the year for quilters, fiber artists, and those interested in learning.
