Big 24 Quilt Show Affiliated Groups display

 

There are 28 textile groups who are affliliated to region 8 (Suffolk and Essex) of the Quilter's Guild. All were invited to have a free stand at the Big 24 Quilt Show and 17 groups will be exhibiting at the show.

This will be a fantastic celebration of quilting and textile art from the East Anglia region. 

I am co-ordinating the affilated groups and will have work on show with two of the affilated groups.


Out of the Fold will have a table display of the fans from the 'Unfolding' exhibition












Spotlight Textiles will have a joint group piece of work with all seven members contibuting a section. This is a piece of brand new work, the first in the exhibition series on 'Spotlight on...architecture' which will be revealed at the Big 24 Show

There is also an opportunity for members of all the affiliated groups to enter quilts into the main part of the show. There is no charge and work of all sizes, styles and techniques are welcome - they just need to have a sleeve and be able to be hung from a traditional quilt stand.

Enter Big 24 Quilt Show   Deadline for entry is 31st Jan 2024 and I encourage everyone to put something into the exhibition. Go on, show off your talents! And to come along to the event from 26th - 28th April 2024 at Blackthorpe Barn near Bury St Edmunds IP30 9HZ
