QOF Episode 178 - Chris English

My guest today is Chris English. He makes heirloom quality quilts from a variety of fabrics using old clothes and giving fabric a new lease on life. I first saw his quilts at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham two years ago and I loved every stitch, the use of colour, and every title of his message driven quilts. He studied textile design at university and has become a quiltmaker with a passion. Find Chris English on Instagram @afullenglish Want to travel with Brandy? 2025 FESTIVAL OF QUILTS Birmingham!!!
