Minnesota Quilters' Scholarship in Remembrance of Doreen Speckmann
Scholarship application deadline is February 1, 2008 !
Are you a new or beginning quilter?
Would you like the opportunity to attend the Minnesota Quilters' 2008 Quilt Show and Conference in Rochester ? If so, Minnesota Quilters, Inc., offers a scholarship for beginning quilters. We believe, as did the late Doreen Speckmann, that the best way to encourage and inspire new quilters is to give them a chance to participate in a great quilt show and conference. The person chosen to receive the scholarship will be awarded the following:
- Registration fee.
- Registration for two 3-hour classes or one 6-hour class.
- Registration for three lectures.
- Banquet and Award Ceremony ticket.
- Single hotel room for two nights.
To be considered for this scholarship you must meet the following requirements:
- Been a quilter for less than two years.
- Started fewer than three large quilts or four wall hangings.
Apply for the Scholarship
- Write a 300-500 word essay explaining what quilting means to you and what you would like to learn by participating in the quilt show and conference.
- Take photos of two of your quilts or wall hangings, with a description of each. The quilts do not need to be finished.
- Complete the scholarship entry form.
- Be sure that your name and address are written on your essay and pictures.
Mail your essay, pictures, and entry form to:
