Featured Quilt - Second Place Contemporary Quilts at the 2023 Festival of Quilts


Time to Loss by Youn Kyung Song won Second Place in the Contemporary Quilts category at the 2023 Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, England. A mixture of different quilting techniques and unusual materials come together to bring Youn's quilt about accepting and using the time that we've got to live.


About the inspiration and creation of the quilt, Youn says, "Everyone is given a fair amount of time, but everyone has a different way of using it. The emptiness of time is expressed in broken clocks and watch gears. Melted crayons into old magazines to express a gorgeous texture as opposed to the sense of loss."

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Compassion For All

"Chenrezig" by Leslie Rinchen-Wongmo


The central figure of the quilt, Chenrezig, who is the Buddha of compassion, was made using the traditional method of Tibetan silk applique, but placed on a machine-quilted background. With this quilt, Leslie started to bring some of her own culture in contact with the Tibetan tradition.


To learn more about this amazing quilt, read Leslie's full description about it by visiting its page in the Featured Quilt Gallery and clicking the About The Quilt tab.
