The Most Comprehensive and Highest Quality Art Quilt Conference in the world since 1990 is sponsored by Quilt Surface Design International, LTD . In addition to the quality of the classes, the air-conditioned modern facility includes classrooms, exhibition space, dining and all housing under one roof.

The shuttle from the airport brings you directly to the University Plaza Hotel and Conference Center in Columbus, Ohio. Here you will find a sharing environment to meet quilters and fabric artists from all over the world– from as far away as the Netherlands, Israel, and Japan, and as close as our back doorstep in Ohio. Come to exchange ideas, gain insights, and stretch your creativity in an atmosphere of comaraderie.

The next symposium will consist of four sessions:

Session I:	June 14 - June 15 of 2008
Session II:	June 16 - June 20 of 2008
Session III:	June 21 - June 22 of 2008
Session IV:	June 23 - June 27 of 2008

The Quilt Surface Design Symposium has been critical to the non-traditional quilt movement since 1990 in providing education for all those interested in exploring their own potential in the medium. To this end, we have selected the very best teachers available worldwide to give workshops annually at a two-week conference here in Columbus, Ohio. We have been committed to offering a creative atmosphere where serious and intensive learning can happen in a supportive and sharing environment. Both students and instructors gather from around the globe under one roof for a set of classes, lectures, exhibits and tours covering quilt design, sewing technique, surface design of fabric used, and professional development. The reputation of QSDS is held in the highest regard as the workshop venue for art quilt makers interested in developing their careers.

Our symposium features over forty classes with top name instructors. Students may sign up now for any number of our 2-DAY SESSION and/or 5-DAY SESSION classes.

If you have ever thought about art quilting and its related techniques, then REGISTER NOW, as our classes fill quickly.
