Having created a bit of a storm last year by publishing
my thoughts on the Festival of Quilts judging and categories, it is only fair
to update you on what has been happening.
I am really impressed that both Twisted Thread and the
Quilters’ Guild have been listening to what we were saying and have changed the
competitions for this year’s FoQ. There
is a brand new category of Fine Art Quilt Masters and the brief reads a bit
like an update from the old ‘Quilt of the Year’ competition. They have also tweaked the definitions of art
quilt and contemporary. You can find out
more here, along with the entry forms.
I urge you to enter, take part and visit the Festival of
Quilts, because whatever you think of the competition, it is the best chance in the
UK to see high quality quilts and to meet up with the quilters who make them.
