OUR GOAL

Our goal is:

  • To promote the beautiful international tradition of patchwork and quilting among the inhabitants of the entire planet, who come to visit the south of Spain.

  • Also, we specifically combine two significant events to conduct master classes from professionals for amateurs. This is an opportunity for a lively communication of crafters with their idols.

  • In addition, a separate training program (workshops) for children is being offered.

THE FESTIVAL CONSISTS OF 2 PARTS:

1. An Exhibition of quilt amateurs from all over the world

This is an open air exhibition in one of the most beautiful parks in Europe – in the Park la Paloma.
We plan to host more than a hundred amateur quilters there, each of which can exhibit up to 5 of his/her works plus his/her own patchwork design of a heart-shaped pillow cover.

The international jury will choose the best works of these amateur quilters. There is also an annual Viewers’ Choice Award. It will be presented by the Mayor of Benalmádena.

This event will be covered both by Spanish and foreign media.

2. An Exhibition for professionals in the «Castillo El Bil-Bil»

It will feature the work of professional art quilters and widely renowned international patchworkers.

In September 2017, the 1st international exhibition by the association «LUCKYQUILTERS INTERNATIONAL» was successfully held in the Castle Bil-Bil, presenting a variety of high quality works by the following European textile artists:

Jo Dennisson (GB), Lyubov Lezhanina (RU),

Jacqueline Bahí (ES), Miri Tsoi (UA),

Paula García Ledesma (ES), Oksana Mader (GER).

The response and echo to this exhibition throughout Europe was extremely positive and encouraging and the strong support by the authorities of the city of Benalmádena was very helpful and highly appreciated.

Participation in both exhibitions is free of charge.

The main prerequisite is that you must be a member of the association «LUCKYQUILTERS INTERNATIONAL»

LUCKYQUILTERS INTERNATIONAL believes in good and knows that people of art cannot remain indifferent to the sufferings of others. For the second year in a row, we are helping the hospice «Fundación Cudeca Benalmádena» by organizing and supporting their charity events. Together with the city council, we have presented a check for more than  2.000,00 €.


For the first time in 2018, we are organizing a new campaign in support of the «Kölner Herzkissen e.V.» association's initiative in Köln (Germany) that sews heart-shaped pillows to help in the rehabilitation of women, who underwent surgery to remove breast cancer.

All our participants will bring a pillow cover using their own patchwork design, created specifically for this association. Photos of the covers and a personal photo of a good quality (portrait of a craftswoman who made covers) will need to be sent to our e-mail: info@luckyquilters.com
