Spring International Quilt Festival Moving to Cincinnati!


Next year's Spring edition of the International Quilt Festival will be April 8/10, 2011 in Cincinnati, Ohio. After eight years, this is the last year for Chicago to host the Quilt Festival, which is starting today, April 15, with Preview Night - through April 18 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois.

The decision to change locales was based upon attendee feedback, requesting easier parking, affordable accommodations and more restaurant options. Festival Director, Karey Bresenhan points out, "I think this shows we're really sincere in our desire to seek out and act upon well-thought-out suggestions for improving our shows..." Nice to know it is worth your time to complete those evaluations and surveys, and that people listen!
