Great instructors and classes just announced

The Houston Quilt Festival is a great event. Besides buying tons of fabric, patterns, and tools, the Festival offers over 350 classes from renowned instructors.  This is your chance to get close-up and personal instruction from some of the best of the best.

The wizards at quilts.com announced the lineup of instructors and their classes at the Houston Quilt Festival. You cannot register for these classes quite yet but you can start figuring out which instructors and classes you want to be. Some classes are full-day events and some are two-hour meetings.  

Registration will open up in July 2021. So mark your calendars now. While making your plans a reminder that they have a preview night for their quilt display on October 27, 2021. So if you will be there early why not plan on seeing the quilts without as much of a crowd?

Faculty at the Houston Quilt Festival

How about if we do some name dropping?  Among the instructors is Teresa Coates (you probably know her from Shannon Fabrics and the Cuddle fabric), Laura Heine, Paula Nadelstern, and Ricky Tims.  Can’t overlook Arizona’s Cindy Lohbeck and her fabric dyeing classes that we have discussed before.

The Festival starts on October 28th and concludes on Halloweens, October 31, 2021.  It is held at the George R. Brown Convention Center in downtown Houston, Texas. Some of these classes start early on October 25 and 25.  After all how else do you squeeze in more than 350 classes?

Houston Quilt Festival Housing Info

Since the event is in downtown Houston, Texas there are plenty of hotels within walking distance to the George R. Brown Convention center. Two have walkways that adjoin the convention center and more are within a few blocks away. Best to make hotel plans now as some already are booked full. Don’t forget two airports service Houston so you should have plenty of options to fly into the Houston area.

Will we see you there at the Houston Quilt Festival?
