Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival Online Now Open

The 32nd annual Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival which is normally in Hampton, Virginia opens virtually today, Wednesday, and runs around the clock through Saturday. Virtual show-goers can see the quilts, shop the merchant mall and take interactive workshops from the comfort of their homes.

This grand quilt show started in 1989 and has been a destination for fans of quilting, wearable art, embroidery and embellishments of all sorts on textiles. Here are some photos our wonderful stitching friends have shared with us over the years.

To attend on-line go to www.onlinequiltfestival.com. Registration is $10 to see all the quilts and visit the many vendors that have placed new photos and perhaps specials on their products for all to see.

Cindy Oravecz of Quilters Fancy will be teaching The Embellished Crazy Quilt Sugared Wreath Saturday, Feb. 27 from noon to 6 p.m. EST via Zoom.
