Featured Quilt - First Place Modern Quilts at AQS QuiltWeek Daytona Beach 2026
The Glass Ceiling is Broken but the Ladders Aren't Fixed by Robin Thomas won First Place - Modern Quilts at AQS QuiltWeek Daytona Beach 2026. Also featured at QuiltCon 2025 in the Improvisation category, Robin had this to say about what inspired her to make the quilt. "I have spent my career in a traditionally male industry and had to fight for a seat at the table that my male colleagues got by showing up. Recently I found that the young female engineers who work for me are facing some of the same issues I faced when I started over 30 years ago. it made me realize that the glass ceilings are broken but the ladders to the top are still treacherous." |

You'll Find This Technique Absolutely Charming
In exploring new uses for charm squares, Tiffany Hayes developed a clever technique she calls “splice magic,” which transforms squares into triangles and works with any size square. After covering bias and trimming, she shows how to assemble one half of a heart block using a charm pack and a coordinating background fabric.
