Quilt Submission Guidelines

The exhibition is open to anyone who receives this call. Quilts made by individuals, two persons or a group are allowed, and more than one entry per artist/group may be submitted.
There is no entry fee.
Entries must be accompanied by an artist’s statement no more than 250 words in length, and an artist’s biography of no more than 100 words. The text submitted may be used in press releases and in publications, and may be edited for these purposes. A strong artist’s statement is crucial, explaining the concept of the quilt, linking it specifically to the theme of the challenge and sharing your inspiration for the quilt.
All entries must consist of three layers, and be quilted by hand, by machine, tied or a combination of these techniques.
Quilts must be smaller than 78 inches square (200cm square). Please state the measurements of your entry.
Quilts based on photographs must have the permission of the photographer so as to protect copyright.
Entries must be of fabric in good condition and ready to exhibit, clean and free of smoke and odors.
No commercial kits of any form will be accepted.
