Stunning designs and amazing varieties draw your attention. Creations in appliqué, needlework, embroidery, and weaving are a treat to watch.

The exhibitors constitute weavers, craftsmen, artists, tailors, designers, embroidery experts, and departmental stores. Among the visitors are shop owners, media personnel, business promotion agents, art lovers, collectors, and enthusiastic buyers.
Another significant quilt exhibition is held in Schweinfurth Memorial Art Center, Auburn in New York. Inception in 1981 this annual event attracts the most outstanding quilt makers. Handmade quilts have remarkable artistic worth and are treasured for their craftsmanship. This exhibition is an opportunity for weavers and buyers to interact and understand the details of handmade quilts. Workshops are held regularly to acquaint enthusiasts about the basics of quilt making. The different techniques of quilt making viz., knitting, weaving, appliqué, and stitching are explained and demonstrated in these workshops. Though these are not teaching centers in the strictest sense of the term, they are helpful in presenting a basic idea of quilt making.
This exhibition is an attempt to bring in traditional and modern day quilt makers on an even platform. Traditional rich creations are displayed alongside innovative designs in line and abstract compositions. Over the years brilliance has been observed in surface design of handmade quilts and their pictorial representations. Each year the exhibition gets enriched by newer designs and superior craftsmanship.
The traditional art of handmade quilts are being encouraged by art colleges and promotional agencies. Apart from trade shows and exhibitions of large scale, small scale shows are held in art colleges at regular intervals to encourage quilt makers and weavers. Quilt makers have also benefited substantially by these exhibitions and trade shows. Machine made quilts being cheaper and longer lasting have a mass appeal in commercial terms. Compared to these handmade quilts are expensive.
Exclusive design and superior craftsmanship make handmade quilts a superlative creation worthy of a royal patronage. As it is not easy to locate these weavers scattered over territories, art shows gives an opportunity to view and buy their creations. It is a marvelous effort by trade promotion agencies and welfare associations to bring these forgotten craftsmen to the forefront and keep a tradition alive.
Exclusivity of handmade quilts has made them a collector's choice across countries and continents. These quilts if preserved properly could be used for generations.
