Featured Quilt - Best Longarm Machine Workmanship at PIQF 2023
Tunnel Vision by Beth Nufer and Clem G. Buzick, featured in the Mid-Century Mod/Modern category, won Best Longarm Machine Workmanship at the 2023 Pacific International Quilt Festival. Beth says of their quilt, "I love making quilts with a 3-D effect. I also enjoy using gradated fabric for the background! All cotton fabrics."
Filled to the brim with vibrant and stunning colors, it's a quilt that you can just get lost in when viewing, or as those QuiltFest liked to say so punningly, "it’ll be sure to give you tunnel vision."
