Featured Quilt - A Thousand Hexies For A Summer's Day


Honeybee Garden by Emily Parson was featured in the Pieced category (Sponsored by AccuQuilt/June Tailor) at the Houston International Quilt Festival 2024. Emily's piece is a hexagon quilt that features over a thousand hexies that come together to form a beautiful sight for a bright summer day. She says, "This piece captures the essence of a sunny summer day with every shade of yellow - the bees, the flowers, the wind, and the sky as the sun's rays shimmer through the trees and dapple the ground."

Overdyeing Print Fabric with Wendy Richardson

Fabric Dyeing to the Max


On our latest show, Wendy Richardson explains how overdyeing patterned commercial fabrics can create a striking wow effect. In her segment, she demonstrates how to analyze the existing colors and patterns in the fabric design and make informed decisions for the best results. She also discusses which fabric patterns work well for overdyeing and which ones to avoid.

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Circular Thinking

"Sacred Circles" by Sally Collins


Sacred Circles was created in a more mandala style, rather than the traditional one that Sally Collins is known for. A favorite quilt of hers, she drafted it out and taught it a couple of times. In making it, she wanted to practice using one color with an accent, which she had not done before.
