Curated by EUROPEAN QUILT ASSOCIATION
The aim of the European Quilt Association is to promote Patchwork beyond national borders and break down any cultural and linguistic barriers between members. EQA, as a guest of Abilmente Primavera 2025 in Vicenza, proposed a new and important project.
A new exhibition of works will be presented as a world premiere. The proposed theme is Legend. The legends are numerous, interesting and often linked to different cultures. Using their imagination and knowledge of their country's legends, the participants from all over Europe created a legendary work with fabric.
dear jane - in my way -
Curated by Merceria e dintorni
The Dear Jane is a very famous antique quilt, designed and sewn by Jane Stickle in Vermoont and completed in 1863. "DEAR JANE my way" is machine stitched, redesigned all blocks, keeping the original design with new measurements.
Each tile measures 16.25x16.25. and is quilted with light batting and joined with a grid of background fabric and a square at the corners. For tiles that were impossible to make by machine, appliques were used. Paper piecing, appliqué, embroidery, as long as the design was kept as similar as possible to the original. A fundamental part of the project was the study of colour. The author of each single artefact has chosen her own chromatic path.
