Inspiration Color of Connection Quilt Partnership

Category: News

Baby Lock is proud to partner with Color of Connection Quilt. They are focused on connecting the modern quilting community across all colors, ages, genders and backgrounds. They believe where there was more colorful connection, there was more beauty to be celebrated not just in quilts, but also in our communities.

Their Story

Founders, Porfiria Gomez, Michelle Collins and Keyana Richardson were looking to see a colorful connection to connect the modern quilting community. Across all colors, ages, genders and backgrounds, their vision created Color of Connection Quilt. Not only is this a pattern and quilt along, they are also creating their own non-profit (waiting on 501c3 approval). Funds from pattern sales and donations will allow them to host quilting workshops with vulnerable youth of all colors. These workshops held in their respective cities (Brooklyn, Columbus and Atlanta) will foster relationships and meaningful connection.

More Than a Pattern

They believe "by making quilting more accessible to more socio-economic classes, races, ages, and genders, they hope to raise up the next generation of modern quilters, ready to share their voices through quilting". Baby Lock is proud to join Color of Connection Quilt and other sewing industry partners to support this movement to bring a colorful change through the joy of quilting.
