"Quilts? Aren’t those like … blankets?"
Quilt shows and fiber art exhibits allow you to:
- View work by local artists and craftspeople.
- Meet artists and crafters.
- Purchase handmade items.
- Take a chance to win raffle quilts, mini quilts and baskets.
- Support a group’s charitable efforts in the community.
- View demonstrations of quilting and related techniques.
- Become inspired to try quilting yourself!
Sew Many Shows is creating a brochure about quilt shows for non-quilters.
We’ll be sending the brochure to places that plan outings such as assisted living communities and senior centers.
We’re need pictures of:
- The shows and exhibits themselves
- Raffle baskets and raffle quilts
- Boutiques
- Vendors
- Snacks
- Demos
- Scavenger hunts and similar activities
Send us images
If we use your photos we’ll ask you to complete a photo release form.
- Permission to use a photo of a specific quilt (pdf)
- Permission to use a photo of other things you’d find at a show (pdf) (Vendors, boutiques, benefit quilts, snacks, etc.)
This is also a way to promote your group or guild. We’ll give credit to the photos if asked. We can offer links to your site if we use the photos online.
Where to?
