All about QC
This is our history.
The Quarter Connection is all about the world of Quarter Inch Scale Dollhouse Miniatures and the people who enjoy creating and collecting them.
We are an online group bound together through the internet, compliments of Groups.io.
Our group was started by Sally Dohrman in 1999. Her vision was to have a place for dollhouse miniaturists to share their love of quarter inch scale dollhouse miniatures with like minded others. Luci Hanson took over leadership of the group in 2002 and brought us many years of workshops, conventions, roundtables, projects and other quarter inch scale activities. Since 2012, QC has been led by Janet Smith and the QC leadership team.
Today, we are several hundred members worldwide enjoying quarter scale activities online. Check out our schedule of activities on the calendar page. If you are a quarter inch scale Dollhouse Miniaturist you will surely find QC a fun and educational place to be.
Thank you for visiting us and come back soon!

This Quarter on QC
We have a lot planned for this quarter. The focus for this quarter will be summer and fall. We are starting out this month with a spooky workshop by Michelle’s Miniatures. What a great way to celebrate fall. You will have until July 7 to order this.
July 24th we announced a new Free Project. This free project is a little different as we will also offer kits already cut for you if you would rather start with a kit. The free project plans (or kit) will be available to all QC members and will give you an opportunity to join in the garden and landscaping fun during our NAME Day/ Garden Party weekend in October.
September will bring another Halloween workshop by Bob Francis, The Witch’s Keep, a haunted Victorian house.
The 4 Season’s centerpiece free project is available in the files for you to make. All 4 seasons are ready for you to create your own centerpiece and there are video snippets along with the written directions to help you along with these. Out of all 4 I think my favorite is fall.
Don’t forget the NAME Day/ Garden Party swap. We have extended the deadline for swap signups until August 16. Think hanging planters, a garden bench, or some beautiful flowers planted in “soil” that you could add to your garden space. How about some metal art, or garden gnomes? What about a garden swing or a trellis? Or how about garden signs or other wall art? This is a great way to get some plants and flowers and maybe a bench or 2 for all the landscaping projects coming up.
