Text on Textiles: Words as Design in Quilts

International Quilt Festival/Houston plans to showcase quilts where words and fabric come together to form a unique statement. This is the second year of a three year project that will culminate in a contest in 2011. This exhibit will be one of the highlights of Festival, October 30 - November 7, 2010, at the George R.

We would also like to retain quilts for possible exhibit at International Quilt Festival Spring; our spring Quilt Market in Salt Lake City, May 2011; and our summer International Quilt Festival in Long Beach, California, July 2011. This exhibit is open to all.
