Festival of Quilts 
NEC, Birmingham
 
3-6 August 2023
www.thefestivalofquilts.co.uk/ 

A festival of quilts. As the rising awareness of the craftsmanship of Quilts takes form, why not take a trip to Europe’s leading patchwork and quilting event, The Festival of Quilts, as it returns to the NEC to celebrate its 20th Anniversary. 
 
Launched in 2003 in partnership with The Quilters’ Guild, The Festival of Quilts sees individuals worldwide come together and share their passion for quilting. Two decades on, and it is now the biggest quilting show in Europe, with an expected attendance of over 22,000 quilting fanatics. Featuring a global quilt competition, workshops, talks, and a vast array of quilting materials, find your perfect patch this weekend. 
 
Incoming from the States is a quilter, author, teacher and host of the hit YouTube channel ‘The Midnight Quilt Show’, Angela Walters. Describing quilting as her therapy, Walters will share her various skills in a series of workshops and talks. So sewing machines at the ready, start tapping that peddle, and hear the sweet tune of the Singer sewing machine as you glide into the NEC this weekend.
