Quilt Expo 2016

WISCONSIN PUBLIC TELEVISIONWITH NANCY ZIEMAN
Escape. Create. Celebrate.Welcome!
In September, thousands of quilting enthusiasts will gather in Madison, Wisconsin to celebrate the joy of quilting at the Midwest’s premier quilting destination: Quilt Expo! Now in its 13th year, Quilt Expo offers hundreds of educational opportunities, nearly 200 national (and international) vendors and a 10-category juried-and-judged quilt contest and exhibition.
On the following pages, you’ll find hundreds of educational opportunities to pique your curiosity, including one-hour lectures, hands-on workshops and sit & sew workshops, all led by leading educators.
You’ll also find a guide to our vendors, who travel to Quilt Expo to showcase the latest fabrics, threads, notions and sewing machines. With a vendor mall covering 85,000 square feet, you can spend an entire day just shopping!
Our community service project, Quilt to Give, returns this year, and our newest community service project, the Bringing Hope 2 Others Blanket Drive, makes its debut.
And what would Quilt Expo be without quilts? Our 10-category Quilt Contest exhibit will feature more than 300 beautiful quilts. Find inspiration for your next project in this and the many other special quilt exhibits, including this year’s brand-new Winter Games Quilt Challenge and the Kids’ Quilt Challenge.
All this and much more is only a few months away. Now is the time to mark your calendars and make your arrangements! I look forward to seeing you at Quilt Expo in September.
Sincerely,
P.S. Meet me at the Wisconsin Public
