Brushy Mountain Quilters Guild was founded in 1986 by a group of Alexander County quilters. Our by-laws were officially adopted  November 24, 1986. 

Our Articles of Incorporation were filed March 21, 1995.  We qualified as a Not for Profit Corporation in the State of NC November 20, 1995 and received our Federal exemption documents July 18, 2000.

Membership in BMQG is open to any person with a love of quilting and the desire to learn more or share their knowledge about the Art of Quilting; on payment of the required dues.

Brushy Mountain Quilters Guild meets the fourth Monday night of each month at 7:00 pm in the Educational Complex of the Hiddenite Center which is located in the heart of Hiddenite, North Carolina.  Turn onto Hiddenite Church Street at the caution light - you will see a Hiddenite center sign at the intersection.  Drive north about one tenth of a mile, crossing over the railroad tracks, you will see the Educational Complex on your right.  Turn to the right onto Leach Street, then it is just a hop and a skip to the Center's parking lot.

New members and visitors are always warmly received and urged to take part in Guild activities.
