Take a rest from the quilt show and enjoy a 30 minute bed-turning
presentation, held 4 times daily. During each presentation, vintage quilts are held up while you hear the story of the quilt and it’s patterns. Whether they were lovingly made by an ancestor or purchased at an estate sale or antique shop, they are all treasures and have something to tell us. You’ll also gain an insight into construction techniques, common materials, how to date a quilt, and how to care for your antique quilt.
At the 2024 Quilt Fiesta, this exhibit will feature Baby and Crib Quilts. Our goal is to show quilts of varied periods and styles, as well as “best” and “utility” quilts. If you have a vintage quilt to show off, fill out this entry form.
