The National Quilt Museum is pleased to announce the winners of the New Quilts from an Old Favorite 2022 Competition & Exhibition. This year's theme was Shakespeare and we'd like to congratulate all the award winners and participants. This exhibition of 43 quilts from artists from 22 states and 3 countries will be at The National Quilt Museum from April 8, 2022 through August 23, 2022.
From WeAllSew.com: Betsy Vinegrad is an acclaimed quilter (and a member of The Quilt Show) and her quilts are works of art. Her quilts have won ribbons at national festivals, some are featured in a book, and her Mod Blocks 2 is currently exhibited in the National Quilt Museum in Paducah, Kentucky. Recently, at the 2021 virtual Quiltcon, presented by the Modern Quilters Guild, she won a Judges Choice Award and second place in the American Patchwork & Quilting Wedge Quilting Challenge for her quilt, Azulejos.
By pairing mini quilts together with full sized quilts from their collection in the Stitched In All Sizes exhibit, The National Quilt Museum invites guests to explore these works in new and fun ways by pairing the smallest and largest quilts together! This exhibit was curated by Registrar & Collections Manager Laura Hendrickson.
