Some Mid-Summer Fun!

I'm sure that the 11th Annual State of Maine Quilt Shop is far from everyone's minds (except for those of us on the committee...), but there are other fun ways to connect with your favorite quilt shops, all summer long! While you all are gardening, beachin' it and celebrating with friends and family, we quilt shop owners are right in the midst of QUILT SHOW SEASON. Yes, it's a season. And summer is when the quilt shows explode!

Did you know that we have shop owners who travel the country all year long, selling their wares? We also have shop owners who visit only smaller guild shows. And we have everything in between.

So, to celebrate the next up and coming quilt show, we've got a fun little contest!

Maine Quilts 2013 is right around the corner. If you're new to this event, be sure to visit www.mainequilts.org for all the events, classes and hours. If you've never volunteered at Maine Quilts, this is a great year to start! Whether it's wearing white gloves, selling raffle tickets, or scribing for the judges, there is always something to do.

Here's the contest. Leave a comment below, or on the Facebook page linked to this post, with the number of Maine Quilts 2013 vendors who were also part of the 10th Annual State of Maine Quilt Shop Hop!

We have a prize pack of 10 quilting patterns (a $99 value!) for the winner, who will be randomly selected from all the correct answers.

Good luck and we'll see you at the show!
