The Quilters Hall of Fame is excited to announce the selection of Katie Pasquini Masopust as our 2024 honoree. Since Katie first began quilting in 1978, her creativity and sense of design and composition have been a moving force in the contemporary field of quilt making. She became a leader in the Art Quilt Movement through her eagerness to teach art quilters and through her seven-year service as president of Studio Art Quilt Associates. The positive effect she has had on the quilt world internationally and her many awards testify to her having earned a place in The Quilters Hall of Fame.
