Updated Quilt Show Entry Information

Have you selected your quilts for our show in September? If not, please do! We want everyone represented in the show. Our best shows are the ones with the most participation.


Entries are Due August 6 but, if you have them ready, please bring them to the July meeting. The earlier Estelle receives them the less stress the whole process it. Also it's very important that you include a color photo, she doesn't have the ability to print color photos.

You can download the entry from here.

PLEASE NOTE THIS CHANGE IN DATE:  THE DATE FOR DROPPING OFF YOUR QUILT/S HAS BEEN CHANGED FROM SUNDAY, SEPT. 9 TO FRIDAY, SEPT. 6, BETWEEN 9 AND 10 AM AT THE MONTPELIER CENTER.

A reminder for our fall exhibit.  We hope to include quilts that were created to fulfill our challenges from the past two years.  Just in case you've forgotten them they were:

1.  Create a pieced background; applique an object onto the background.

2.  Paint Chip Challenge -- pick a color from those supplied and create a piece with that focus.

3.  Using a randomly picked alphabet character, create a quilt to showcase that character.

4.  Create a quilt inspired by the word " idyll" or "ideal."

Note: we had two other challenges but they involved creating a postcard and we will not be using these.
