Have you always wanted to have a quilt hang in Houston? Look what they are doing at Quilt Festival this year!
 
Here's the information from Quilt Festival. Click here to go their website.
 

We love sharing the work of talented quilters from around the world at Quilt Festival each year. But we know that quilters are a humble lot, and there’s much more talent out there. We want to see it! So, we’re introducing a fun, new opportunity for quilters to see their work at our Houston show…in the form of a photo!

We will display photos of traditional-style quilts in a special “You’ve Got Talent” display at this year’s International Quilt Festival in Houston. Entering couldn’t be easier—simply email us a photo of a finished quilt or quilt top using the guidelines below.

STEP 1. Take a photo of your finished traditional-style quilt or quilt top.

  • The entire quilt must be visible in the photo. There should be no people, pets, or background
    objects in the photo.
  • Please do not drape your quilt over furniture or on a bed. Hang the quilt or lie it flat to take
    the photograph.
  • Take the photograph at your camera’s highest resolution setting. Photos need to be high quality,
    and able to be printed at 8” x 10."
  • Please include “You’ve Got Talent” in the subject line of your email.
  • Include both your name and the title of your quilt or quilt top.

We look forward to seeing all of the photo submissions and sharing them with visitors at this year’s show!

This is a great idea - a wonderful way to get more participation and share images from quilters who are not able to send a quilt to the show. I hope you post some photos of the photo wall!

Betty,
It says "traditional" quilt, so I don't think it has to be an original design. Just made by yourself.

Does the quilt have to be an original design or can the picture be of a quilt we did but the design was a published one of someone else's?
