Marcus design director Laura Berringer also snapped a few favorites from her visit to QuiltCon. Even better, back here in arctic NYC, she shows off the result of her workshop with the Gee’s Bend quilters, who were this year’s keynote speakers at QuiltCon as well as instructors. Laura was happy to share what was left of her Marcus charm pack with the legendary quilters that put Gee’s Bend, Alabama on the map! You can clearly see the influence of these African American fiber artists in the quilts that caught Laura’s eye, one of the roots of the Modern Quilt movement.
Did you attend this year’s QuiltCon in Austin, TX? Pati did, and she sent back pix of a few of her favorite quilts on display. Here’s what caught her eye…Which quilts were your favorites?
We were there, and we had a blast! We loved meeting old and new friends over the weekend at QuiltCon in Austin, TX — the creative energy was contagious, and the mood was “joyous”, as described by our president, Stephanie Dell’Olio (that’s her on the right, dwarfed by the towering QuiltCon entry sign – Pic 2) Here are some pix from our booth…
Our QuiltCon booth (Pic 1) featured OMBRE HAND DYES (Pic 6) and STRIP-IT fabrics (Pic 4)
Here in the office, we’re counting down the days to QUILTCON, the conference and show by and for The Modern Quilt Guild. QuiltCon will feature top modern quilting instructors and will attract attendees from around the world. As sponsors of QuiltCon, Marcus Fabrics will be there to meet & greet, with goodies, giveaways and demos featuring our OMBRE HAND DYES by Studio 37 and STRIP-IT fabrics.. Be sure to stop by and say hello!
