QUILT SHOW SUBMISSION RULES Bonnie McNally, Chairman
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 17, 18, and 19th. NO QUILTSwill be accepted after August 19th.
For these 3 days before the quilt show someone will be available at Jennifer’s to take your quilt.
A registration form (see Sample Form for required info)will be completed for EACH item by the committee person. 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 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 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 be available for pick up between 5:00 and 6:00 PM after the show is over on Sunday.
