Quilt Registration:

  • Did you know that there is NO fee to enter a quilt in Maine Quilts? Only quilts entered in the Judged Quilts category are charged a fee. Entrants may submit up to 4 quilts.
  • The sooner you enter your quilt, the lower your number will be for quilt pickup! 
  • You are not required to be a PTQG member to enter quilts in the show (but new members are always welcome!).
  • Complete your online quilt registration today! Quilt registration closes May 15.
