Southern Colorado Regional

Quilt Show

The 12th Annual Quilt Show

Our 2022 Show has concluded!  There were 164 quilts from 53 quilters representing 10 quilt guilds, and four quilters who are unaffiliated. In addition, there were a number of other items in the Display Case in the Back Gallery - the Open Wide bags (in three sizes) and the Moravian Stars from our classes last Fall.

Although no demos or quilt appraisals were held this year, there was a children's class held each Friday - a Scavenger Hunt the first week, and the kids created a miniature Barn Quilt the second week - see their pictures at the end of the Quilt Show below. As our Community Project we collected new stuffed animals and sweatshirts/pants (in both childrens and adult sizes) which became three carloads given to ACOVA.

An Opening Reception was held for Featured Quilter Carol Davis on Thursday, March 31st,  with guests invited to vote for their favorite of Carol's quilts.  The Featured Corner displayed 24 of her quilts selected to showcase the variety of projects she has completed over her quilting career; there were 3 additional quilts to be found throughout the Show in general.

We hosted 1580 visitors this year - the most ever for our Show.  Folks came from near and far around Colorado, and from some other states as well (Kentucky, New Mexico, Oklahoma, ..)

 The annual Pride City Quilt Guild Bucket Raffle (with 11 different items) is near the front doors - as always, tickets are $1 each or 6/$5.  Choose which item(s) you wish to win by placing your tickets in those buckets!  The drawing for these items will be held at our April meeting, April 18th at 10:00a.

The Scrappy Ladies Quilt Guild is showing their raffle quilt for 2022 - My Blue Heaven - tickets are available for the drawing to be held in July 2022.
