Our quilt show is not juried or judged, and is open to all members to enter, but we do give visitors the opportunity to vote for a Viewers’ Choice quilt, and from the members’ challenge.
This year’s quilt winner was Laura Ujhazy for her stunning En Général, her first English paper pieced quilt, that was made entirely from her extensive collection of French General fabrics, include the back. Laura custom quilted it herself on her long arm machine. The award was announced at the end of the show on Sunday afternoon by our Convenor, Susan Mackintosh, just before the display was taken down. Congratulations Laura!
The 2026 members’ challenge brief was for a 10” star block using dark blue as the background, with the addition of darker blues and white or cream fabrics only. The winner was Noelle Sona’s brilliant swirling star. Noelle was also presented with her award at the close of the show. Congratulations Noelle
Members can donate their challenge blocks to our community quilts initiative, and they will be used to make a quilt or quilts. We’ll post all of the blocks in closer detail in a later post.
Thank you to all our visitors for coming to the show and participating in the Viewers’ Choice.
