The time has come to submit our quilts for display at the Santa Fe College President’s Hall! Gainesville Modern Quilters will have our very own quilt exhibit on display from Monday, Nov. 4th- Wednesday, Dec. 18th. So exciting!
If you have a modern quilt (or one with a more contemporary vibe) please consider submitting it for our exhibit. The gallery Director really loved the pictures of the quilts I sent him and says that the gallery is quite large so he is accepting pretty much all the quilts we’d like to submit.
Here are the details you will need to know about quilt submissions. PLEASE READ THEM CAREFULLY!
*This form needs to be filled out for EACH quilt being submitted for the exhibit as soon as possible: http://bit.ly/18KjgX7
1.Your quilt can pretty much be any size, they only ask that it not be longer than 9 ft. Wonky dimensions are welcome.
3. Each quilt submitted MUST HAVE a 4″ sleeve sewn to the back of it. If you missed this month’s meeting and Vanessa’s sleeve-making demo you can find one here: http://tallgrassprairiestudio.blogspot.com/2012/02/hang-your-quilt-hanging-sleeve-tutorial.html
