It’s the land of folk music, award-winning bourbon, a world-famous horse race, and quilts that could stack as high as the Appalachian Mountains. It’s Kentucky, of course, and we’re bringing you along for the ride in Issue 12 of Quiltfolk!

In each issue, Quiltfolk takes you on a roadtrip to see incredible quilts and meet remarkable quilters and quilt lovers, always against a different, gorgeous American backdrop. Well, “gorgeous” might be an understatement when you’re talking about Kentucky. The hills, valleys, and pretty red-brick houses in the city of Louisville paint a picture of the truly triple-crown state.

The only thing more lovely than Kentucky itself? The “quiltfolk” living, working, and making quilts and quilt history in the Bluegrass State. We’re so glad you’ll be joining us on our journey across Kentucky.
