The Patchwork Gilde Deutschland presents the thirteenth edition of the "Tradition to Modernity" competition, which took place in 2023. This textile quilt competition takes place every three years and is characterised by the fact that it sets only a few rules. The members of the Patchwork Guild are free to implement their own ideas and show the public both which themes are close to them and what technical skills they have.

We sell yardage fabrics and this is the 16th time we've been to the Patchwork Meet. All years. Like every year, we will bring your favourite fabrics to Brno.

The company HAIŠMAN s.r.o. - Sewing Centre Haišman - the main partner of the Brno Patchwork Meeting, has been operating on the Czech market since 1990 and specializes in the sale of sewing/embroidery machines and overlockers/coverlocks, textile haberdashery, fabrics and everything needed for sewing.

I am concerned about the effects of fast fashion and the overproduction of textiles in general. I am trying, with the proverbial drop in the ocean, to reduce the amount of textile waste going to landfill and incinerators. With the motto: "Don't throw your shirt in the wheelie bin, throw it on the floor!" I started to process worn textiles and waste from knitting and weaving mills into dense, but washable, carpets, rugs, seat cushions.

We will bring to the BPM various fabric packages from the latest collections from TILDA or also from MODA Fabrics.

Founded in 1996, the textile art association Patchwork Gilde Austria is dedicated to promoting the art of patchwork and quilting and building a community of enthusiasts.

We are a company that produces hand-twisted balls from unusual materials - merino, silk, linen, cotton or ramie. We also offer hand-dyed skeins, using only natural or professional dyes.

Come and see and experience the power of professional sewing machines, the creativity of hobby machines and discover with us the beauty and magic of machine embroidery.

BPM has traditionally dedicated space to charity projects. This year the expo will also include the Debra Charity Bazaar, organised by Corpus delicious.
