Quilt LasVegas 2024 coming soon!
It doesn’t need to be finished to enter; you have until check in on Monday morning, Mar. 11, 2024
It just needs a name & estimated size
Why Should I enter a quilt in the Show?
You can choose to have your item judged or not. If you’ve not entered a Show previously, non-judged allows you to skip the judging process while allowing attendees to enjoy your seeing what you created.
Having an item judged allows you to be surprised by a ribbon! Every entrant receives a private email with feedback from the judge meant to let you know what you are doing well while providing a few (usually 3 or less) suggestions of how to enhance your skills.
Let 2024 be the time to enter your first quilt! Our Quilt Show relies on a variety of entries. Entries are meant to inspire others with your creativity while presenting a unique variety of subjects, designs, techniques, fabrics, materials, etc. Don’t let a belief that “I’m not good enough” deter you from entering. We all have a unique vision which we display in our quilts. Let’s choose to share them with others!
If you have yet to enter something, please look at what you’ve completed in the past 3 years and find something to enter. I’m confident you won’t be disappointed, the audience will enjoy seeing your work and you have helped the Guild have a successful Show which funds the national teachers we are able to bring to our meetings!
