“QUILT – EAT – SLEEP – REPEAT!”
The theme of the 2017 Quilt Show largely reflects “The Circle of Life” for most quilters (borrowing from Elton John and The Lion King). If you have ever attended a quilting retreat you have seen this theme in action–dozens of quilters enjoying each other’s company while creating quilts, an overflowing table of “treats” to share, and comfy beds for rest before they joyfully begin it all again the next day.

The 2017 Show will be expanding to 30,000 sf of space at the Westfield Middle School, Westfield, IN. One of the new features will be a special exhibit curated by Susanne Miller Jones titled “Fly Me To The Moon.” Artists from eight countries have created art quilts celebrating Man’s First Walk on the Moon. This multifaceted collection includes quilts that commemorate the iconic images from the news; recall personal memories of July 20, 1969; honor all of the Apollo Missions; recognize all of the Apollo Astronauts; investigate scientific moon images, examine Nasa’s cool tools; explain myths associated with the moon; define moon idioms; replay the music inspired by the moon; and visit pop culture icons. The exhibit’s 179 art quilts tell the story of our fascination with the moon. This exhibit has something for everyone and our Indianapolis Quilt Show will be one of only a few places nationwide to exhibit the entire collection.
In Support of the Fly Me To The Moon Exhibit, we are pleased to announce that
physician, engineer and NASA astronaut Dr. David Wolf will be at our show the afternoon of Friday, October 20! As a four-time veteran of outer space, his
experiences and knowledge about space will make the exhibit come alive. He will be accessible to visitors to answer questions and to share what it is like to be “out of this world.”
