Featured Quilt - A Symphony of Quilting
What does one do when they have a lot of time on their hands? For the past few years, many of us have had to ask that question due to being cooped up inside for so long. If you're like Mayumi Ishii, you take advantage of that time and create a beautifully symphonic quilt full of hand piecing, hand quilting, hand embroidery, and hand appliqué.
Concerto was featured at the 2022 Houston International Quilt
Festival and shows off how time well spent creates something magnificent. She says, "Over the last two years, the pandemic has increased the amount of time spent at home. However, the time to quilt while listening to music was a fun and fulfilling time. Many roses were played."

Maria Shell is known for creating colorful

And, take in a visit with Karey Patterson Bresenhan and Nancy O’Bryant Puentes to learn how their efforts have influenced and kept quilting on everyone’s radar.

Making Magic Happen
Every other week on The Quilt Show a brand new quilter will come and show you things
you could never dreamt of doing. Some would call it magic, and we actually think that's a pretty good word for it. Where else are you going to get almost 400 teachers, from newcomers to legends and everything in between, who are dishing out their skills to the next generation of quilters? Join us and share in this special brand of quilting magic.
