This year will include a special themed Mariner's Compass exhibit and a presentation by Paula Nadelstern, Symmetry and Surprise, the Kaleidoscope as Design Inspiration.
And new for 2012, all lectures at the show are free!
The show will be held in Hall C of the Greater Columbus Convention Center, in Columbus, OH, June 14-16, 2012.

To help you join in the fun, they are giving away a free pattern, an Ohio star with a simple Mariner's Compass center designed by Martha Ethridge. Mariner’s Compasses were used to guide sailors and it is possibly one of the earliest named quilt designs in America.
