The Quilters' Guild Museum Collection, which opened in St Anthony's Hall, York, on 7 June 2008 but closed on 31 October 2015, was Britain's first museum dedicated to the history of British quilt making and textile arts. The museum was founded and operated by the Quilters' Guild of the British Isles. The guild was formed in 1979 and is the national organisation representing quilt makers throughout the country. Traditional and contemporary work is of equal importance within the guild, and membership is open to anyone who works in patchwork, appliqué and quilting or has an interest in quilts.
The Quilters' Guild continues to care for its collection of historic and contemporary quilts and to make acquisitions. The guild continues to explore a wide range of opportunities for items from the collection to be exhibited in other locations.
