20th Annual Indiana Heritage Quilt Show

Workshop and quilt entries now being accepted.

BLOOMINGTON, IN – On March 3-5, 2011, the 20th annual Indiana Heritage Quilt Show will present quilting workshops led by well-known teachers, show over 200 quilts submitted from all over the world, and showcase special exhibits. One such exhibit is the Magical World of Mary Buvia, a once-in-a-lifetime exhibit showcasing the tremendous quilts of award-wining quilter Mary Buvia, many of which have never been publicly viewed before.

Other exhibits will also be on display, including the competition quilts which are eligible for over $15,000 in prize money. Quilts are judged in 10 categories by well known and respected judges. A new, non-prize winning category has been added this year for young quiltmakers (aged 16 or younger). All quilt entries must be submitted by February 7, 2011.

The Indiana Heritage Quilt Show is proud to host eight world renowned instructors who will present three full days of workshops and lectures. Displays of their work will also be available for viewing. Workshops are also available for quilters of all experience levels and cover a wide range of techniques. Each workshop is limited in size and fills up quickly with registration ending on February 11, 2011.

Other features of the 2011 Indiana Heritage Quilt Show include the Merchant’s Mall, book signings and additional quilt-related exhibits at area museums. For more information regarding workshops, entries and exhibits, visit the IHQS website at www.IHQS.org or call 812-391-0009.
