Visit Clive James Library, Kogarah to view dozens of the beautiful and intricate quilts handcrafted by the Kogarah Quilters community group which will be on display.

The Kogarah Quilters are a community quilting group formed in 2010 that meets at Clive James Library, Kogarah to share their love of quilting and create up to 60 quilts each year for charity using materials donated by the community.

The group is made up of quilters of all skill levels who come together to learn new techniques, share their knowledge, and produce beautiful works of art. Each of the quilts on display were handmade at Clive James Library, Kogarah and showcase traditional patterns and more modern designs. The quilts showcase the group's commitment to preserving the art of quilting and to giving back to their community.

Charities supported by the Kogarah Quilters include: Georges River Council Domestic Violence Crisis Centre, Triple Care Farm, Kookaburra Kids, St George Hospital Mental Health Unit, Gabby's Angels, Lamrock Committee at St George Hospital, Westmead Children's Hospital, and St George Red Cross.
