Like a fine art show, the Quilt Fest features outstanding quilts hanging on display in fantastic exhibitions. Included is an impressive showcase of some of the region’s most talented quilt and textile artists – the entries to the juried and judged Tri-State Quilt Competition. This show is a wonderful opportunity for quilters to experience the diversity and creativity of their fellow enthusiasts, and to be both awed and inspired.

The Tri-State Quilt Competition highlights quilts and textile art created by residents of New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. These regional artists will represent their quilt and textile communities with a stunning collection of artwork while competing for prizes. Those attending the Quilt & Sewing Fest of New Jersey also have the opportunity to vote for their favorite competition quilt to win the prestigious Viewer’s Choice Award. For those who love anything quilted, this spectacular display will satisfy that creative craving.
