You've now seen Ricky's Houston International Quilt Festival 2025 Best of Show winner, The Visitation. Now, learn the full story behind this outstanding quilt from Ricky himself as he takes you on the journey he went on to make it, from inspiration to creation.
On Monday, Alex Anderson and Bob Ruggiero of Quilts, Inc. announced the winners of the 2025 Houston International Quilt Festival, including The Quilt Show's Ricky Tims winning Best of Show. During the video presentation, there was error when announcing Pat Durbin's First Place win in the Naturescape category. While the winner was correct, Pat's quilt Glimpse Into the Forest, the wrong quilt was shown. This has been amended and we'd to again present the winners of the 2025 Houston International Quilt Festival (for those who haven't seen it, or would like to watch it again).
From the International Quilt Festival: "Join Alex Anderson of TheQuiltShow.com and Bob Ruggiero of Quilts, Inc. as they reveal all the winners of the 2025 International Quilt Festival Judged Show! This Monday, September 15, 10 am PT/1 pm ET. Stream it on the Facebook & YouTube Channels of TheQuiltShow.com & International Quilt Festival! It will also be available for viewing afterwards. Good luck to all our finalists!" Can't wait for Monday? Relive the excitement of seeing Alex and Ricky Tims announce last year's winners for Houston International Quilt Festival 2024. Alex had a ball doing it last year, and is so excited to announce this year's too.
