May 2025 - Quilt Show Prep

There are many factors to consider when entering a quilt for a show. Our own member Vivian Benton walked us through the considerations for putting a quilt in a show, with many tips for how to win awards.

Vivian describes what judges look for in a well-made quilt.

Vivian walked us through piecing, pressing, quilting, binding, labels, and judging standards. Our goal this year is for more members to enter quilts in shows, and this presentation gave us all the encouragement to enter our quilts into upcoming shows.

Vivan brought many examples and one lucky member won a quilt!
