2026 Quilt Show Entry Form

Before completing this entry form, read the Quilt Show Guidelines  
  • The due date for entries is January 12, 2026. Each item must have a label/claim check attached. Please use the 2026 Quilt Label-Claim Check to create your label. Each quilt must have a 4″ sleeve securely sewn to the top back upon delivery. Failure to provide a sleeve will result in your quilt not being exhibited.

  • To review the submission and sales guidelines please refer to the Quilt Show Guidelines.

  • If an entry was created by a group, please select one person to enter the item - otherwise, each quilt needs to be entered by the maker.

  • NOTE: Please use your mouse or the Tab key to go from one input field to the next. Do not use the Enter key!

  • Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.

  • The Labels Committee will proofread all entries and correct spelling, punctuation, and minor grammatical errors. If significant changes are recommended or necessary (e.g. the description is too long to fit on the label) the Labels Committee will contact you.
