Teresa Duryea Wong and David Owen Hastings will explore and dissect 10 influential modern, masterpiece quilts. You’ll fall in love with these quilts — and we’ll explain why.
WHAT MAKES A QUILT A MASTERPIECE?
This is a great lecture to discover more about modern quilting, and how art and quilting are inextricably intertwined. We’ll reveal how five key qualities combine in different ways to create spectacular results: scale, color, subject matter, technique and innovation.
See masterpieces made between 1990 – 2015 and experience the genius behind these exquisite quilts. Plus, Teresa and David will share a flash review of a select group of winning entries from past QuiltCon conventions.

Quiltmakers are Alabama quilter Yvonne Wells; consummate innovator Jacquie Gering; the incomparable Chawne Kimber; beloved mentor Gwen Marston; colorful Australian Brenda Gael Smith; Argentinian star Cecilia Koppmann; minimalist perfectionist Carson Converse; Japanese master artist Yoshiko Jinzenji; engaging and inventive Erick Wolfmeyer; and iconic Nancy Crow.
