Featured Quilt - It's Colorfully Educational
Rainbow Hexies by Sally Robinson, and quilted by Helen Rode, was part of the Pieced category (Sponsored by AccuQuilt / June Tailor) at the Houston International Quilt Festival 2024. Sally's quilt is not only a lovely hexagon quilt to look at, but you could also say it's an educational tool for quilting as well. See if you can figure out what we're talking about it when you view the quilt. |

Join Ricky On The Journey
On Monday's LIVE The Quilt Show spoke with Nigerian artist Uzoma Samuel Anyanwu, whose quilts were featured as part of the Tales from Africa Exhibit at the 2024 Houston International Quilt Festival. Today, Ricky is featuring our interview that Lilo Bowman had with Oluwaseyi Awoyomi, daughter of Mama Nike Okundaye, as her mother's quilts were also part of the exhibition at the 2024 Houston International Quilt Festival.
Mama Nike's work features a rich culture, indigo dyeing, big stitch, and very traditional looking pieces. It's a passport to another corner of the quilting world.
Ricky is LIVE TODAY, December 11, 2024 @ 10am PST, 1pm EST, and 6pm London time. All classes are recorded so they can be viewed later.
