Description
Akoma Ntoso, in the language of the Akan people of West Africa, literally translates to “linked hearts” and “understanding” and the name was chosen to represents the Guild’s mission to bring the love of quilting as expressed by the expert quilter to the novice quilter; the young quilter to the elder quilter; the female quilter to the male quilter, and so on. The mission is to stimulate an interest in modern quilt making, educate its members, provide for the interchange of information, and encourage community giving.
