In Virginia, you don’t have to choose between past and present, coast and mountains, or quiet countryside and vibrant city streets. This is a place where contrasts come together beautifully—and where there’s always something new to discover around the next bend. Because Virginia isn’t just a place for history buffs and hikers—it’s a place for those who love craft, tradition, and the art of making something by hand. Quilting has deep roots in this land, just like the people who call it home. In every corner of the state, you’ll find quilters carrying on time-honored practices while stitching new chapters of their own. Whatever draws you in, Virginia has a way of making you fall for all of it. Includes artists Rebecca Bratburd, Mel Burke, Meg Cox, Frances O’Roark Dowell, Courtney Mabeus-Brown, Diane L. Murtha, Sharbreon Plummer, Carmen Schell, and Teresa Duryea Wong. Quiltfolk Magazine, Issue 35. 162 pages.
