Featured Quilt - Helen Young Frost's Judge's Choice Award at Houston 2024
To My Father by Sachiko Chiba received Helen Young Frost's Judge's Choice Award (Sponsored by Bohin) at the Houston International Quilt Festival 2024. A very emotional and sentimental quilt, Sachiko created it as a tribute to her father. She says, “This piece is dedicated to my father, who passed away late last year. He is very important to our family. He was very excited about this quilt. I worked very hard to finish it, thinking of him. I put many of his favorite things into the design, and I believe he is pleased with its completion.” |

You'll Love This Charming Way of Color Design
Lee Chappell Monroe shares how charm packs are a valuable tool for building your color palette confidence in our brand new show. By combining packs from different collections, using packs of coordinating colors within the same hue, mixing packs of the same color with different aesthetics, or adding your own fabrics, quilters can create more unique quilts.

Collaborating To Create Something Great

Join Emira Ibrahimpasic, professor of practice in Global Studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), and Marin Hanson, curator of international collections at UNL’s International Quilt Museum (IQM), to hear about their experiences teaching a textile-focused museum exhibition course in which students from Japan spend two weeks in Nebraska partnering with UNL students in examining quilts, discussing their cultural significance, and curating an IQM exhibition."

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Old "Hollywood" Glamour |
|

"Hollywood" by Linda Pumphrey
Linda created her quilt Hollywood from Mountain Mist Pattern 44, copyright 1934. This pattern title was copyrighted during the Golden Age of Hollywood in the 1930s. The pattern for this piece says, “In answer to the demand for really new pieced quilt patterns, we offer this highly interesting original design that included appliqué stars to heighten the effect.” We feel it looks modern today.
