Founded in 1979 by Hazel Carter, The Quilters Hall of Fame
(TQHF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to honoring
those who have made outstanding contributions to the world
of quilting.
The QHF has a permanent home located in Marie Webster's
colonial revival house that she designed her famous quilts and
operated a successful pattern business. The Marie Webster
House has been renovated by The Quilters Hall of Fame and is
now the home of a unique museum and archives system
documenting America's quilt making heritage. The
significance of the house was officially recognized in 1992
when it was designated a Landmark of Women's History and
declared a National Historic Landmark by the National Park
Service, the only one which honors a quilt maker!
