36th Annual Capital City Quilt Show Opening Reception

Presented by Museum of Florida History at Unknown

Join us for a opening reception celebrating the 2018 show, Out of the Blue.

Contemporary and historical quilts will be on display and light refreshments will be served. Admission and parking are free.

The show runs August 31 through October 28. This annual event features hand-crafted and machine-made contemporary quilts, ranging from small wall hangings to bed quilts. Visitors may also enjoy the display of challenge quilts, art quilts, and other traditional elements of the quilt show.

Each year the show highlights the Opportunity Quilt, which is designed and constructed by members of the guild. The 2018 Opportunity Quilt is titled Out of the Blue. The queen-sized quilt features a wide variety of blue fabrics assembled in a traditional Storm at Sea quilt pattern. By making a small contribution to Quilters Unlimited, visitors can qualify for a chance to win the Opportunity Quilt. Visitors may also bid on beautiful quilted items in a silent auction. Winners will be announced on October 28.
