Did you see the PIQF 2021 Best of Show, A Summer Christmas, in our Friday Newsletter? If you did, you're probably wondering how Mariya Waters and Gina Perkes-Tidwell put together such an immaculate quilt. Well, Gina has been kind enough to provide us with some up close photos of Mariya's hand appliqué and her machine work on her BERNINA Q20 while they were putting it together. Come take a look and see an award-winning quilt being born.
Officially recognized as Quilt Week in the city of Santa Clara, CA, PIQF is proud to announce its thirtieth year! Join them at the Santa Clara Convention Center, October 14-17, 2021, as they celebrate the art of quilting. Whether you shop the aisles of the Merchants Mall for the best fabric, learn a new technique in workshops taught by an outstanding faculty, or admire the beauty of the artwork hanging in the quilt & wearable art competitions and special exhibits, take part in the excitement that is the Pacific International Quilt Festival.
