Chris English, Joe Cunningham, Alice Caroline, Sarah and Nick from Bernina ...I met all these wonderful people at The Festival of Quilts 2023 and had such interesting conversations.
Chris makes really lively imaginative work. You can find him on Instagram as A Full English.
Joe The Quilter is a musician, artist and thoroughly lovely guy! He has a website, instagram, Patreon and you'll find him on KZfaq right here
/ @joethequilter
Alice Caroline has a KZfaq channel here / @alicecarolinefabrics
When I met Sarah from the Bernina I was thrilled to find she was from New Zealand! So that is mostly what we talked about of course!
/ @berninainternational
And Nick Ball is the Bernina Long Armer and he has a wonderful instagram! @quiltsfromtheattic
Anna and I arrived at the Festival before the place opened and had the luxury of wandering about with Chris in an almost empty venue. We made more film of Chris and that will be on Patreon soon. My patrons support me to make these videos and are the only sponsors I have! I am grateful to them all! You can check out my Patreon Channel here. Come shopping at the Festival with Chris on September 1st on my Patreon Channel!

Over in my shop you'll find The Quilt Planners Notebook, The EPP cushion kit, my Auriful Thread Box, and many other things including the download pattern for the hexagon pincushion I made in my Workshop. Here's the link

I'm already looking forward to The festival 2024!
The music in this video is from Epidemic Sound (and the lovely Joe Cunningham!)
It is called Technicolour Dreamscape and Say You Would and Joe played 'Nowhere Man'
Thank you for liking, commenting, subscribing, sharing ... all the things!
Take care and I'll see you soon
Love
Kate

What makes Chris's quilts so precious in my eyes is how unprecious they seem to be. Its like they just happen, the product of a passion of creative working that just needs to unfurl itself and ,'happens' upon the final resulting quilt. I love that.

Thank you so much for your videos on the Quilt Festival! So exciting! I laughed a little when you were talking with Joe Cunningham and mentioned the different words in different countries - you were not just at a loss for words, you were outright "gobsmacked"!! Thank you again for sharing so beautifully!

Thanks for sharing Mr. English’s work. I have 2 old quilts that need repair and his bold quilt work has given me courage to tackle it without worry for matching patches.

Thank you Kate and Anna! So lovely to meet Joe and see Chris again. Quilters are just the nicest people! You are so right about color. I’m sure everyone you met from the lime green sofa was thrilled to meet you. I would have been. Take care and enjoy putting your feet up! 🤗🤗

Thankyou so much for taking us around the quilt show. What a wonderful array of talent and great personality displayed . It is so nice of you to mention NZ, I am from the Hutt Valley, a quilter, craftmaker, and knitter, so always enjoy seeing what creations are shown and connecting with the people you meet and interview in your videos.

What l love is the freedom to make a quilt that isn’t perfect, yet is well executed and artful. I have been a quilter for over 30 years and was taught to quilt with tiny stitches and your piecing had to be perfect. Very daunting. But now we can appreciate the point of handmade, and part of the beauty is that it isn’t perfect. Machines make perfect, not humans.

What a fantastic video!! I absolutely loved it. I live in the US and, at my age, I will never get to attend your quilt festival. So you sharing this has given me a glimpse of something I would otherwise never have seen. Thank you so much for sharing all of it with us. It is such a treasure, and I am looking forward to seeing what the two of you do with your new fabric stash!!

That’s an interesting observation about the healing power of color. In 2005 when Hurricane Katrina hit the Mississippi Gulf Coast, my brother and sister-in-law experienced 32 feet of flooding-which wiped out trees and plants and everything was brown. I sent my SIL about 8 pounds of Jelly Bellies, all colors and flavors. She is an artist by trade and she said that though the jelly beans were delicious, what helped her the most was the colors. She so desperately needed relief from the all-brown world. Color and music are the world’s two great healers. Oh, and cats!

Glory days Kate and Anna - I got my internet back and have enjoyed your Quilt Festival Part One and Two. I cannot travel so I appreciate the lime green sofa and everywhere your channel takes me. You are a friend on my screen and if I saw you in person, I'd have to give you a big hug for all the joy you've brought to my Chromebook screen! Thanks again!!
