International batik artists Jonathan and Beth Evans are soon to be featured on The Quilt Show. Their batik paintings are world-class and are wonderful expressions of what is possible with wax resist and painting with dyes. The Quilt Show is also helping to promote the International Year of Batik (2024-25), and has the scoop on several Batik shows you might be interested in seeing.

Several shows are scheduled to celebrate the International Year of Barik (2024-25), including two high-profile Batik Guild Shows. The list of shows includes:

 - Patterns of Change will be opening on Saturday, May 4, 2024, and running through June 30, 2024, at the Naples Botanical Gardens in Naples, Florida.

 - This will be followed by another show at the Floor One Gallery, Rugby Art Museum and Gallery in Rugby, England, UK, opening on July 16, 2024, and running through August 10, 2024
