Minnesota Quilters Website

Special quilt exhibits planned for 2008 will specifically celebrate and recognize the history of Minnesota Quilters, Inc. and our many talented quilters.

29 Years of Minnesota Quilting "Jewels"

We hope to have a "winning" quilt from each of the 29 years of MQ quilt shows. If you have a quilt that won a ribbon any time from the "Winter Fantasy" show in 1979 to "Land of 10,000 Quilts" in 2007 that you would be willing to re-exhibit, please let us know with the following information: your name, address, phone, email, year exhibited, award received, and quilt description (photo if possible).

Celebratory Quilts

We are looking for celebratory or commemorative quilts made for special occasions such as a wedding, anniversary, fund raiser, graduation, reunion, whatever! Again, please let us know with the following information: your name, address, phone, email, and quilt description (photo if possible).

Quilts by our Founders

We would like to exhibit both an early and recent quilt from each of our founders. We will try to contact each of our founders personally, but if you have recent information on any of them or would like to assist with this exhibit, please let us know.

Historical Raffle Quilts

If you have or know of someone who won an MQ raffle quilt at any of the previous 29 shows, let us know. We would like to contact them about exhibiting their quilt.
