The FINE PRINT: Quilt entries must be quilted; the work of the person (or persons) entering it; completed within the past five years; not made from a kit or block-of-the-month program; free of bugs, offensive odor or soil; free of content that could elicit controversy or negative publicity for the Louie Bluie Music & Arts Festival; and not an award winner in a previous Louie Bluie Quilt Show. Show organizers may combine judging categories if one or more categories has only a few entries. Show organizers may split categories into size divisions if there are large number of entries in a category.
Turn in up to five quilts at Cedar Hill Baptist Church (636 Demory Road in La Follette) by Wednesday, September 17. Each Quilt entry must include an entry form and fee.
Entry fees:
One quilt - $20
Two quilts - $40
Three quilts - $55
Four quilts - $70
Five quilts - $85
All entry fees help cover the pavilion rental fee for the show. Any additional contributions or sponsorships are greatly appreciated.
