Patchaouri 2014 was held between 21st February - 1st March, 2014 at the "Melina Mercouri Hall" in Nicosia, Cyprus. The exhibition featured quilts, cushions and wall hangings, all made over the past three years.
We also offered a glimpse into the quilt making process to our exhibition visitors giving them a chance to take part in the designing of a quilt. Our guests were invited to choose a square piece of material, place it onto a "design wall" and thereby add "their patch of love" to the creation. Two patchwork quilts were completed during the exhibition and have been donated to the Sophia Foundation for Children in order to help raise funds to provide free lunches for primary school children in Cyprus.
