Quiltfest 2017

On the Edge

​This was the theme chosen for the 2016 challenge for Contemporary Quilt which is a specialist group of The Quilters' Guild of the British Isles. This is a diverse group of quilters and fabric artists working at the cutting edge of quilt making creating innovative and dynamic art.
 39 quilts were selected to make up the collection which travelled to a number of venues around the country.
