Highlights from the 2024 Quilt Festival Part 2

A Year in Hand by Margaret Brockband, and quilted by her daughter Maika Christensen, is based on the Mrs. Billings Coverlet pattern by Karen Styles, but with a modern palette. 


The original quilt from 1790 is in the Quilters Guild of the British Isles collection. The quilt was hand pieced and took about 2,000 hours.


Blooming Flower, an original design by Fengmei Li, gives its flower an explosive, geometric appearance with hundred of slender rectangles.


Kathryn Kerr's 365 Challenge Quilt was the basis of Suzie Wilbanks' Finding Teal Mountain, except she swapped the center medallion with a Mariner's Compass. Lois Kindley did the quilting.
