The Sitges Town Council and the Spanish Patchwork Association have announced the 21st International Patchwork Festival, scheduled to take place from March 19 to 22 in the coastal town of Sitges.

The Passeig de la Ribera will serve as the event's hub, hosting a commercial fair with over 100 exhibitors across 2,000 square meters. This trade area will showcase the latest specialized materials and innovations in the textile industry.
Artistic displays will be spread across six venues, including the Miramar Cultural Centre and the newly added Espai Joan Tarri. Featured artists this year include Andrea Brokenshire, Rachel B. Hayes, and Naomi Lida, who will present a collection of antique English quilts.

"The 95% of the companies present at the commercial fair are led by women, highlighting the role of female talent in this creative sector."
