Excerpt from the HCCC October mid-month newsletter:
Unifying Threads
showcases beautiful art quilts by the contemporary art-quilt group, Beyond the Borders. The Houston-area group has been meeting for over nine years on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at Quilt ‘N’ Sew in Katy, Texas. Their goal is to embrace creativity, while coloring outside the lines of traditional quilting. Juried by HCCC’s Curator of Fine Craft, Gwynne Rukenbrod, the show includes 24 pieces, ranging from large-scale traditional-style quilts to postcard-sized quilt collages that demonstrate a wide variety of themes and techniques.


Please come to our show Unifying Threads while you are in town for the International Quilt Market and Festival. HCCC is in the museum district, not far from downtown. You will be glad that you did!
