A Quilting Evolution

I went to the Cornell Museum today to see the exhibit A Quilting Evolution. Nearly 100 quilts skillfully and artfully made by members of the Gold Coast Quilting Guild.

Here are photos of some of the modern quilts to inspire you.

Photos don't do them justice. Go see the quilts while they are on exhibit. Details about the museum and exhibit are on our Quilt Exhibits page.

QuiltCon - Block Contest!

Our parent guild, the Modern Quilt Guild, recently announced that they will be holding their first-ever quilting conference in February 2013 in Austin, Texas!  "QuiltCon" will feature amazing speakers and teachers (some of the best in the modern quilting movement), and it sounds like an incredible time.  You can find out more about QuiltCon HERE.

As part of the event, a QuiltCon Block Challenge was just posted!  Submit a 12.5 inch block in the QuiltCon logo's colors, and you could become part of the official QuiltCon raffle quilt.  All blocks that are submitted will become part of quilts for Austin's children's shelter.  A win-win!
