4. Entry
Forms: A completed entry form must accompany each
quilt. The entry form gives you the
opportunity to describe the construction, quilting techniques, and perhaps give
a short story regarding the quilt that would be of interest to visitors. If you need additional forms, please
photocopy the entry form.
5. Picture
of the quilt: If possible, please attach or include a
snapshot or computer printout of the quilt with your name on it with your entry
form. This helps with the descriptions
of the quilts. The picture will be
returned with your quilt.
6. Categories
and Voting: There are no categories other than antiques
and youth (under 18 years old. Guild
members will vote for their favorite “Top Ten” entries at the members only
preview party on Thursday night before the show. Show attendees will vote for “People’s

7. Receipts:
A receipt will be issued for each quilt submitted. You must present this receipt to pick up your
quilt after the show. NO
EXCEPTIONS. If you designate someone
else to pick up your quilt, they MUST have your receipt so be sure they have
it!
8. Display
Methods:
a.
Hanging sleeves or hanging loops are required on ALL
quilts over inches wide. The sleeve or
loops need to be at least 4 inches wide to accommodate the different quilt rack
systems we use. The sleeve or loops can
be sewn on or attached with safety pins across the back of the quilt. If your quilt is received without a sleeve or
loops, you will be notified that we cannot show your quilt without them.
b. Long
Quilts, quilts over
90 inches long, need to be basted or safety pinned to 90 inches so they do not
drag on the floor while on display. Or
you can combine the hanging sleeve and shorten your quilt at the same time by basting
the top edge down to the 90 inch requirement. Please mark the top of your quilt
so we know which option you are using.
c. Some quilts may be hung using binder
clips.
9. Show

10 am to 6 pm, and Sunday April 26th, 10 am to 4 pm.

quilt at these times, please designate someone to pick it up for you and be
sure they have your receipt. If you have
no one to pick up for you, please make arrangements with Linda Reeve before the
show.
