Twenty Plenty — International

Hosted by Teresa Drummond & Wendy Clark

The NiftyFifty group went global for the first time, welcoming quilters from countries around the world. Twenty Plenty's 9" blocks reflected cultural heritage, national symbols, and textile traditions from dozens of nations. This swap was part of the NiftyFifty Quilters tradition — one quilter from each of the fifty states exchanging handmade quilt blocks to create a unique collection representing the entire nation.
