Media Resources

To assist you in your coverage of the 2025 International Quilt Festival/Houston, we have created this special media page with show information, class and show floor photos, and downloadable, hi-resolution images of quilts and textile artworks from some of this year’s special exhibits.

We would also be happy to work with you more directly in developing special features, arranging interviews with quilters, teachers, or the show director, or assisting you in other ways as you plan your coverage.

If you have any questions, please contact Bob Ruggiero, Vice President of Communications, at bobr@quilts.com or by calling 713-781-6864, ext. 116.
