Featured Quilt - First Place Use of Negative Space at QuiltCon 2026
Frost Filigree by Yvonne Fuchs won First Place - Use of Negative Space (Sponsored by Ollie Fabrics) at QuiltCon 2026. Yvonne says of her work, "Inspired by the delicate and intricate shapes on a frosty car windshield, Frost Filigree was designed to create visual interest by juxtaposing curved piecing with varied negative space shapes. I have never made a red and white quilt before, and I enjoyed curating a subtle gradient for the quilt top and continuing the color story through the binding. My goal for the quilting was to continue the conversation between the piecing and negative space."

Historic Royal Palaces: The Spitalfields Mantua Dress |
|
|
|
|
|
"The Extravagance of 1700s Court Dresses"
From Historic Royal Palaces: "In the 18th century, Mantua dresses were the height of court fashion. In this video, our experts discuss a rare and spectacular dress that dates from around 1756. It's 210cm in width, designed to show off how much expensive fabric the wearer could afford. Furthermore, the wider you were, the more likely it would be that you were seen. Few such Mantua dresses have survived from this period, making this a rare treasure within Historic Royal Palaces' collections." |
