Quilts will be delivered to
Jennifer Metzger's home at 135 Main Street, Houlton between the hours of
12:00 Noon and 6:00 PM on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, August 16, 17,
and 18th. NO QUILTSwill be accepted after August 18th.
For these 3 days before the
quilt show someone will be available at Jennifer’s to take your quilt.
TWO registration forms (see Quilt Registration Sample Form for
required info) must be completed for EACH item and submitted
with the quilt or quilted item.
Registration forms are available in a mailbox at Jennifer’s or at
First Choice Real Estate, 46 North Street. You may also complete the form when
dropping off your quilt. Please
refer to the sample form and have the necessary information with you. You will be issued a numbered receipt
tag for each item. This receipt tag
MUST be presented when picking up your items. NO QUILTS will be released without
this receipt.
Your quilt should have an attached
label and be enclosed in a CLOTH PILLOW CASE OR CLOTH BAG with your
name on it. A matching
numbered label will be put on this bag for transportation to the show and
for storage after the show.
When the quilt is being hung
this bag will be pinned to the back of the quilt or quilted item so as not
to be lost or separated from the quilt as it will be needed to release the
quilt back to you.
Those of us who have received
the quilts will have the quilts transported to the show in good time for
those who are hanging them.
They will then be checked again
by numbers to assure they are in the building.
When the quilts are taken down
they will be placed in a secure room where they will be placed in their
bags, and no quilt will be allowed to be removed without a person
presenting a receipt with the proper number for that item.
If anyone wishes for someone
else to take their quilt home for them, they will need to give that person
their receipt so the numbers can be checked against the number on the
quilt, the bag it is placed in, and on a master sheet which will be kept
at the checkout station.
Quilts and items will only
be available for pick up between 5:00 and 6:00 PM on Sunday. Please be patient when picking up your
items. Quilts will be released
to you or to person who has your receipt.
Do not drop your receipt and pick up your quilt. Every item MUST be checked off on the master list in order to
assure that all quilts are protected from being lost.
