I just spend 45 minutes to watch some videos of the International Quilt Festival 2010 in Chicago and I am full of respect for all the wonderful work shown there.
But one question came to my head...
Many of the quilts in the show are machine quilted, even in the special exhibit of "Traditional Treasures".
Is Hand Quilting a dying out craft? Will it disappear in the next 20 or 30 years?
The quilts are all perfectly done and I really admire such beautiful work - but is this the trend for the following years?
What do you all think?
