About south florida Quilt Expo

South Florida Quilt Expo, Inc. is a federally-recognized 501(c)(3) public charity whose mission is to promote and perpetuate the art of quilting. We are an organizational body governed by volunteers from the member guilds, currently, Southern Stars Quilt Guild, Coral Springs Quilters, Inc., West Broward Quilters Guild, Inc., South Florida Modern Quilt Guild, Florida Keys Quilters, Quilting in the Pines Guild, Inc. and Ocean Waves Quilt Guild. All of our funding comes from public support, including membership fees, gifts and grants, and receipts from events we organize.

Every two years, seven quilt guilds in South Florida, come together to present the South Florida Quilt Expo (formerly BQE). It is one of the most exciting and expansive quilt shows in South Florida, and it takes place in sunny South Florida.

In March 8-9, 2025, our show event will again be held at the new state-of-the art facility - the Charles F Dodge City Center in Pembroke Pines, FL.

Over the weekend, thousands of viewers will join us to celebrate the uniquely American art form of quilting.  Whether you want to look at beautiful examples of traditional, modern, or art quilts, if you'd like to buy a quilt, learn how to quilt, attend a lecture, or shop for supplies, SFQE has it all!
