Festival of Quilts

The OVQG holds a quilt show every two years, usually at the RA Centre on the Mother's Day weekend in May. This popular event is an opportunity for the guild members to showcase hundreds of the quilted items they have been creating. These range from beautiful, traditional bed quilts to contemporary fibre art and quilted wearables. The show also hosts an extensive merchant mall, guest artists and other invited local groups.

Our most recent show was held May 6-8, 2011. The next show will be held May 3-5, 2013. The OVQG shows alternate with those of the Common Thread Quilt Guild.

At Home with Quilts

At Home with Quilts is a quilt show with a difference, showing quilts in their natural setting, a home. This show is held occasionally, never in the same calendar year as the Festival of Quilts.

Our most recent show was held October 2nd, 2010, featuring quilted items not previously seen in a Quilt Show. The items were displayed in five homes, each with a different theme:

Seasons

Children

Men (by, of and for)

Art Quilts
