Irish Country Quilting was started in the summer of 2007 by an experienced quilter and teacher and now offers workshops to local quilters and visitors to the scenic North West Highlands of Donegal. Several enthusiastic and skilled teachers have joined us, and together we now have a selection of fast, easy and fun programmes! (Note: earlier or private classes can be had by prior arrangement.)

If you have a group of four (minimum) to eight (maximum), you can choose a specific workshop and an available date. If not, we will take your name and the class desired, and notify you when we have enough people to run the class. (Note: If you have a larger group, we can accommodate you, but we need to make special arrangements, so advance notice is required.)
We have a cosy classroom on the first floor of Pauline’s Country Quilts, a full selection of notions and beautiful fabrics on the ground floor (more than 1500 bolts), and good hotels and B&Bs are available nearby. In addition to class times, the shop is generally open Tuesday through Saturday, from 11 to 5, year-round.
