Quilt Show 2023
Well, finally some good news to share!!
Well, finally, some good news to share…… We as quilt show co-chairs have been in contact with the school, Richland Grade School in Crest Hill and have a date on the calendar!! Our next quilt show is scheduled for March 11 and 12, 2023, with set-up on Friday, March 10. With that being said, before we get too far ahead, it is at the request of the school that we contact them next summer to make sure the school is on board with us using the school and that they’re more comfortable with what is happening with the COVID situation. So, what this means to us, is that we are going to begin to plan our next show and hopefully, when we check in with them next summer, we will get the go-ahead. Don’t forget that someone is already working on our opportunity quilt, using blocks and pieces that we sewed. As we move through the process, we will keep you informed. We look forward to what lies ahead for our guild and our show.

The Quilt Challenge will be one of Imagination and inspiration.
Pick a significant moment or event in your life that has stood out to you. It can be anything! The birth of a child, your first kiss, first date, learning to drive, your wedding day, a marriage proposal, a memorable 4th of July or Holiday, etc.
Now take that moment and get creative.

- Colors – Any!!
- The quilt can be pieced, applique, or wool appliqué. It can have embroidery or hand work.
- Quilt must be made entirely by the member (pieced, appliqued, quilted and bound with a label on the back.)
Member must turn in a registration sheet for the quilt at the same time all other quilt show entries are turned in. It does not have to be finished before registration form is turned in.

We would like to know what inspired… Please include a written paragraph to describe your inspiration. Entries will be judged.
