World Quilt Show – New England XIII
Manchester, New Hampshire
August 13-15, 2015
Every year the international World Quilt Competition has such an amazing display of quilts that the judges find presenting only one with the Best of World Award a very difficult task. This year will be no different with a collection of beautiful and culturally unique entries. The premier of the 19th annual World Quilt Competition will be at the World Quilt Show – New England XIII, returning to the Radisson Center of New Hampshire in Manchester, August 13-15, where the competition will be judged. From New Hampshire, the international entries and selected winning U.S. entries will tour to three more Mancuso Show Management quilt festivals across the U.S. Be sure to take an opportunity to view this international exhibition full of creativity and talent.
Now in its nineteenth year, the competition draws entries from across the globe that will compete for over $9,500 in prize money. Best of Country from among the entries for each nation will be chosen as well as the prestigious Best of World winner. Visitors to the World Quilt Show – New England also have an opportunity to vote for their favorite entry to win the Viewer’s Choice Award.
