Don’t panic!
Your quilt does not have to be finished until October 13th! Once the top is pieced and measured, take a photograph and submit the entry. You will have time to quilt, bind, and sew on the sleeve in September.
If your initial measurements differ from the final ones, email the correction to Guild@ihquilters.com.
If you have questions that the posted instructions do not answer, you can call or text the submissions chair:

Quilt Faire Results
Every year, in our Quilt Faire Program, there is a ballot to vote for your favorite entries. The most favorite entries receive a “Viewer’s Choice” award ribbon.
We know that these are tough choices, and we notice the concentration and serious consideration that our guests show when voting. We are all grateful that you make the effort for us. Those in the guild who didn’t get ribbons this year will have another chance next year.
Y’all are our ‘Academy,’ and we thank you for rewarding us with what we feel in our hearts is equivalent to an Oscar.
And this year’s winners are…
