Join us on 30 October for a live lecture and Q&Q with Kaffe Fassett!

What's On in 2020?
Given that our annual celebration of The Festival of Quilts had to be postponed to 2021, we have introduced brand new initiatives to bring the quilting community together online for a host of activities and events until we can meet again.
Read on for more on Beyond The Festival of Quilts, our Virtual Quilt Competition 2020 and Fine Art Textiles Awards.

What People Say
The artistry was amazing; there are some very talented quilters out there. It has given me the urge to become more creative with my time behind my sewing machine. Congratulations on what I'm sure will be a sell out of a show.
It was so good we visited the festival twice! For anyone that enjoys crafts, sewing, quilting or interested in having a go, I would strongly suggest going along and having a great day out. 10/10
Absolutely incredible works of art! Feel honoured to have seen these quilts close up - Superb!
I spent two very happy days at The Festival of Quilts, the ambiance was incredible, and there was enough room between the stalls to move easily, the quilts were fantastic, and everyone I spoke to were saying it was the best one ever, a wonderful day!
My daughter and I paid our first visit on Friday... We were totally blown away by the quilts on display and had a fantastic time shopping too. Will definitely return next year. Thank you so much for all the hard work in putting on such a magnificent show!
Fantastic show with lots to see, do and buy! Made all the more special with my daughter winning the Young Quilter of the year (5-8 years). Will be back next year!
