Two-Day Introduction to Quilt Judging Seminar
Are you a quiltmaker interested in elevating your knowledge? Do you want to understand what makes a winning quilt? Are you a quilt professional? Are you interested in perhaps becoming a Certfied Judge? Or maybe you are going to run your guild’s judging room. If so, then this is the seminar for you. Whatever your purpose, this class will give you a thorough foundation in all aspects of quilt judging including evaluating construction and design, the business side of judging, terminology, and judging room set-up. Led by Nancy Fuka, a NACQJ Certified Judge and an NACQJ Qualified Instructor, we will explore the world of judging through class discussion and participation, handouts, and mock judging exercises. We will also discuss the certification requirements of the NACQJ, but this class does not certify students and this class is not a prerequisite for certification. Handouts will include resource recommendations, a glossary of art and design terms with definitions, sample contracts and invoices, and much more. Supply List Students should bring 1-3 quilts to use as subjects in mock judging. For this mock judging, we prefer that you bring your quilts with definite issues rather than your best quilts. Everyone recognizes excellence. It’s much harder to comment on flaws. Due to space limitations, smaller quilts are better, but we won’t turn away large quilts. There is a supply fee of $15 for the notebook of handouts. You pay this fee directly to the instructor during class. |
