Europe’s leading patchwork and quilting event returns to Birmingham NEC from 1-4 August 2024 with a bumper line-up of features that include special guest appearances from international quilting artists (including Jenny Doan!), hundreds of craft brands, an incredible workshop, a talks and lectures programme and much more!
Visitors can look forward to spectacular galleries by some of the world’s leading quilt artists, including Amy Pabst, Caroline Oneta and Sarah Hibbert. This year’s exhibition from The Quilt Collection boasts an impressive collection of late eighteenth and early nineteenth-century pieces, several of which have never been publicly exhibited before.
New for 2024, a special retrospective exhibition will feature a selection of “Visitors’ Choice’ winning quilts from The Festival of Quilts competition from the last two decades, giving visitors the opportunity to view some of their favourite quilts once again.
The Festival of Quilts also offers Europe’s biggest workshop and talks programme featuring international tutors, including Jor Cunningham and Gregory Jay Barner.
More than 200 specialist craft retailers will be on site, with exhibitors from across the globe, including Australia, New Zealand, the USA and Japan.
