Featured Quilt - Second Place Appliqué at Houston 2024


Sue Nickels, friend and four-time guest of The Quilt Show, is back on the awards circuit this year, and she has taken home Second Place in the Appliqué category (Sponsored by The Quilt Show itself) at the Houston International Quilt Festival 2024 with her quilt, Flowerland. The quilt is a labor of love for Sue, as it takes appliqué designs from her very first book and repurposes them into something new and fresh.


She says, “These are my original appliqué designs. Sampler blocks from my first book, Machine Applique: A Sampler of Techniques, were set around the new center flower basket. It was machine appliquéd using the stitched raw-edge fusible technique with original feather designs free-motion machine quilted in the border. There is some ruler work in the sashing area to complete the quilting. The little bird is a favorite design used frequently in my quilts.”


As a four-time guest, Sue has taught many things at The Quilt Show. You can learn about her most recent endeavors with ruler work when she appeared last on the show with her sister Pat Holly in Learn How to Use Rulers in Your Quilting with Sue Nickels | Learn How to Work with Silk Ties with Pat Holly.
