On some subjects we have different opinions here at BAQS and we can argue all day about the hot button topics of our time. Pressing to the side ~vs~ pressing open. Poly or cotton thread or of course the holy grail topic of pre-washing or not. There are not always clear answers.
But on one topic the answer is very clear ~ Love Always Wins~ at BadAss Quilters Society and we will never back down or hide from defending the rights of any human to love who they love.
BAQS is firmly in the camp of all the colors of the rainbow, and we honor each and every person who strives to be their most authentic self no matter gay, straight, bisexual, pansexual, transgendered.
We welcome your amazing self no matter where you are on your walk to be the person who lives in your heart.
You are welcome here. Come quilt with us.


I already knew this however, it makes me so very happy to read it over and over….
Hell yea!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh crap, crying at work again! Thank you for this. I’ve just finished piecing a double wedding ring for my mom, who for all the quilts she has made has never to my knowledge received one herself. She stood by her man, my dad for 63 years until the end. I’ve been standing by my man for 24 years, and intending to follow mom’s example. Thanks for making me feel welcome.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
As it should be.
Logo designers will need to get busy. Have you seen the new Rainbow flag? It has a black and brown stripe added to the top. An effort to be even more inclusive.
Love this!
All of the above. 💖
Love is love is love is love

Totally agree!
Awww Maddie, you’re the best!!!
Lovely sentiment….beautiful soles ❤❤
This, this is why I love you so much!!!
Yes. Love always wins
I don’t understand what anyone’s sexuality has to do with quilting. We all have talents and we were created equal in the eyes of God.
Love what you said here!
Open gay folks are often not welcome in quilting groups. Sad, but true.
❤️❤️
Love this!
I’m with you!
