WV Strawberry Festival

The 40^th West Virginia Strawberry Festival Quilt Show sponsored by the Quilters at Heart Guild and the Upshur County CEOS will be held at the Rockefeller Center at West Virginia Wesleyan College in Buckhannon.  The Strawberry Festival Craft Show will be on the floor of the gym, and the Quilt Show will be on the Balcony on the elevator (right) side.

Those who’d like to exhibit items may bring them to the Rockefeller Center on Monday or Tuesday.  You do not have to be a member of the Quilt Guild or a CEOS organization to participate.  Seventeen categories are available, and the person listed as the maker of the quilt (the person who pieced, appliqued or sewed the quilt top) may enter one item per category, in as many as 5 categories.  Past winners in the Strawberry Festival Quilt Show should not be entered again.

                Friday, May 17^th from 10:00-6:00
                Saturday, May 18th from 8:00-12:00 noon

In addition to the Quilt Show, there will be a Boutique where hand-made items may be purchased, as well as the opportunity to buy raffle tickets for a “quilter’s basket” and for a quilt made by Guild members.
