The International Quilt Festival/Houston continues from October 30 through November 2 with more of everything quilters have come to expect and, well, more.
Once inside the George R. Brown Convention Center, it may be difficult to select your favorite from among the more than 1,000 contemporary and antique quilts on exhibit.
Tactile Architecture™ is an exhibit that quilt lovers know to look for at each Festival. Shown below is Repentance/Redemption by Nancy E. Kimpel of New Berlin, Wisconsin, that will be on display with other selected works, celebrating architectural themes and inspirations.
