Thursday, November 3rd, Style Shop headed downtown to look at some amazing work at the International Quilt Festival. While the students of Style Shop may be tackling some ambitious sewing projects during their time at Workshop Houston, nothing quite prepared us for the intricate designs and impressive sewing that was on display here.
Students especially enjoyed the Wearable Art section of the show, which displayed quilted clothing. Another big hit was the quilts which were created with sparkling thread.
Making a quilt is a huge undertaking, and the students were impressed by the amount of work that goes into something so lasting and beautiful. When asked to pick just one as their favorite, students said they absolutely couldn’t choose one quilt over another. We are already looking forward to going back next year!
