Festival of Quilts 2024! [ UK Quilt Show in Birmingham, England ]

Published 2024-08-06
Here is the story of my visit to the Festival of Quilts 2024. This is the biggest UK Quilt Show and it's held every August at the NEC in Birmingham, England.

I talk about the quilts I entered in the quilt competition, show you as many quilts as I could manage to take photos of - but there were loads more in every category than I could photograph! - and I also show you my quilt show shopping haul and talk about some of the lectures & workshops I attended.

    I was lucky enough to go this year and meeting Jenny and her family was wonderful, I learned so much from her trunk show, such a down to earth lady. The quilts this year were amazing such talented people and I did see yours aswell.

    Thank you for sharing, loved seeing all the quilts, your two person quilt with Tom, beautiful. And thanks for sharing your purchases, I too enjoy scrap bags so much more than charm packs or layer cakes.
