Highlights

Each year, the Houston International Quilt Festival gets bigger and better and this year promises to be as exciting as ever as the city rolls out the red carpet to quilt enthusiasts. Year after year our Houston guests tell us this is the most fun they have ever had at a quilt show!

It has been said that visiting the Houston International Quilt Festival is like visiting an art museum. Each year, quilters from around the world have the opportunity to display their quilts and the final juried pieces are both unique and beautiful. We have added this exceptional tour at the request of our international friends in Canada, Europe, Africa, New Zealand, Australia. the United Kingdom, and others; but we are happy for anyone to join us, no matter where you live.

Our hotel rooms are at the beautiful and convenient convention center hotel, the Hilton America’s Houston, making it easy and quick for you to go to the show, attend classes and participate in all of the Quilts Inc. and IQA activities without the need of transportation or the hassle of waiting for a show shuttle. Prior to the show we will enjoy the Texas quilt museum, quilt shop stops, a special visit to the beautiful Mercer Botanical Gardens and Historic Old Town Spring, as well as additional activities. You may also attend the Gala grand opening night of the show and you will have plenty of free time to participate in one of the many workshops and lectures offered. 

We are not able to provide information about Quilt Festival workshops or classes. However, it is available from Quilts Inc. Please go to www.quilts.com at any time to get on the mailing lists for the festival schedule. There is a slight charge for the mailed catalog, however, class catalogs are posted online at the same time the printed catalog is released. Note: The Festival brochure with the list of classes will not be available until mid-July, 2022. After this time class information will be available at the quilts.com website.

This tour is limited to no more than 25 people.
