June 5-8, 2024 | Winterset, IowaPrepare yourself for an unforgettable quilting extravaganza this June 5-8, 2024 – the Iowa Quilt Festival! Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 8, when the enchanting town of Winterset, IA, undergoes a stunning transformation into an art gallery adorned with quilts gracing the iconic Covered Bridges of Madison County, churches, and historic buildings. Prior to the airing of quilts, immerse yourself in the magic of quilting by learning from esteemed quilt instructors from June 5 to June 7, 2024. Gain invaluable insights into diverse quilting techniques and elevate your craft under the guidance of seasoned experts. Discover fresh possibilities and refine your skills amidst the historical ambiance of the Winterset Livery. Keynote speaker Mary Kerr, a renowned American Quilt Society certified appraiser, award-winning quilter, and celebrated author will visit us in Winterset for the festival. Her “Twisted” exhibit will feature our gallery where she will give a gallery walk. Don’t miss the opportunity to attend her “Saving Our Treasures” lecture and participate in two engaging workshops focusing on vintage quilts. Also, June 5-7, 2024, you have the opportunity to retreat to the historical ambiance of the Winterset Livery where you can create your own masterpieces while reveling in uninterrupted quilting bliss. Forge connections with like-minded quilting enthusiasts, exchange ideas, and reignite your passion for this art form.
