Today’s guest: Terry Grant
Between Mother and Child - featured in the 2011 special exhibit The Space Between
What Festival is this for you?
This is my first Festival. I went to Quilt Market several times when I had a shop, but was never able to stay for Festival.
Where will you be and when?
I plan to spend most of my time with the Twelves and our exhibit, but I am also excited to see an exhibit called “The Space Between” that I have a quilt in.
What are you most excited about this year?
Meeting most of the other Twelves for sure! I so wish we were all going to be there, but it is a long, long trip for some of them.
On a related note, just how excited are you to see all the quilts together?
Well, I had the honor of preparing the quilts for the Houston show, so I have seen them all, one at a time, but I am sure it will be a thrill to see them hanging together. I’ll probably cry!

Is there one piece from that you’re really excited to see in person?
I think I am excited to see all of Helen’s quilts, especially. She used some very unusual materials. I am also very interested in Kristin’s water quilt that was designed to disintegrate.
What’s your one must-take item for Festival?
My camera, without a doubt.
