Carrefour - The European Quilt Show

Among the world’s top 3 textile arts events, the European Patchwork Meeting offers a wide variety of textile artworks every yearfrom patchwork to embroidery, mixed media, dyeing, crochet and lace: all forms of textile art come together for 4 days of frenzy.

Considered as the cradle of the Amish community, the villages of the Val d’Argent (Alsace) open their most beautiful venues and welcome an unforgettable festival of colors and materials, with each year more than 30 exhibitions of international artists.

The shopping area with more than 4,500 square meters of specialized booths full of supplies, new ideas, and materials presents the latest trends and products from the thread world. And to put the artists’ techniques into practice, there’s nothing better than the workshops and seminars offered each year by renowned teachers.

Over 1.000 works of art, 1 shopping area and more than 20 classes: the European Patchwork Meeting is the annual meeting for all thread lovers.
