Festival of Quilts

We are so looking forward to The Festival of Quilts which is taking place this week!! It is one of the largest and most prestigious quilting events in the world and it is taking place in the U.K. It will attract quilt-makers, textile artists, and enthusiasts.

Marent Crafts cannot wait to visit to see all of the festival showcases, making this event a diverse and inclusive celebration of quilting as an art form.

One of the main highlights for us at this event is the display of stunning quilts and textile art pieces created by talented artists and quilters.

With lots of categories and entries including, Traditional, Two person NEW – Sustainable quilts, quilt creation, pictorial quilts, novice, pictorial, creations, miniature, modern quilts and group quilts, this will be an amazing showcase with no limits! Prizes and recognition will be awarded to each category!

Workshops and Masterclasses will be conducted by experts in the field! We will be looking forward to seeing representatives and friends Janet from Vlieseline and Sharron from Bosal, along with Kerrie from Living in Loveliness. They will showcase the amazing techniques their brands innovate.

Marent Craft has a huge selection of waddings from the brands and we are very much looking forward to seeing these made into beautiful works of art.
