We all know that spectacular quilts hang at the International Quilt Festival in Houston, but did you know the show has other exhibits highlighting a quilter's creativity?  If your quilt wasn't juried into the show this year, you can still strut your stuff through your photos and through your writing.

This year's contest is "Eye of the Quilter: Reflections - Words and Images."  Festival asks that you submit up to three photos that show how our everyday lives reflect what we see, think, hope, and dream.

The other portion of the contest asks that you reflect those same ideas through Haiku. Haiku is the art of creating an evocative or provocative three-line poem consisting of 17 syllables (five in the first line, seven in the second, and five in the third).

Registration is open now through September 15.  If you'd like to learn more click here for the photographic exhibit or here for the Haiku contest.

Get out your cameras and get out your pens, show the world your reflection!
