Spotlight on Virginia Quilters - Emma Allen

Emma Allen is an art quilter from Williamsburg, Viriginia. Emma was nominated by Priscilla Stultz and Priscilla had this to say about Emma, "She is always ready to help any one who has questions or problems with a project. She taught her first class this year at Colonial Piecemakers and all her students raved about her as a teacher."

The Virginia Quilt Museum is honored to introduce our newest series of exhibits as we share the work of outstanding quilters from across our great commonwealth, "Spotlight on Virginia Quilters". Throughout 2025, we will feature six different quilters who have worked quietly behind the scenes perfecting their craft, sharing their expertise, and supporting their local communities. These artists may never have won national awards or taught on the big stages, but they are the backbone of our quilting communities. These small exhibitions will feature 4-8 works from the artist and be on display for 7-8 weeks.
