Modern quilting is a contemporary approach to quilt-making that emphasizes bold colors, graphic designs, and innovative techniques. Unlike traditional quilting, which often features intricate patterns and historical motifs, modern quilts focus on simplicity and minimalism. Quilters often use a variety of fabrics, including solids and contemporary prints, to create striking visual contrasts. This movement has gained popularity since the early 2000s, with communities forming around the shared interest in modern quilting. Many quilters participate in online forums and social media groups, sharing their work and techniques. The Modern Quilt Guild is a prominent organization that supports and promotes this creative art form.
