Seven Sisters Quilt Show 2012

Electronic Application Instructions

These files are only for use by members of the Almond Country Quilt Guild, Bear Valley Quilt Guild, Central Coast Quilt Guild, Gold Coast Quilters, Santa Maria Valley Quilt Guild and SLO Quilters.

Disclaimer: these files are in Microsoft Word 2003.  They will work in Word 2007.  There is no guarantee that they will work in any other program or version.  They were designed by a volunteer who is not a professional software engineer.  If you cannot use these files, please use the printable hard copy applications availableat the bottom of this page, or through your guild representatives and submit via your guild applications/acquisitions representative.

To use the electronic forms:

1. Decide whether the entry is a Quilt, an item of Wearable Art and if you are opting to participate in the Judged portion of the show.  Click on the appropriate form.
2. Fill it in on your screen.  The Guild field is a drop down – no other choices are available this year.
3. When complete, save the application to your computer.  For those who are not very computer-comfortable: this is the “save-as” feature.  It is recommended that you choose a document name and place that you can easily find again.  If this means to the Desktop and just your lastname and a word from the title of the entry, that is just fine. 
4. Print your entry.  You will need to sign this and attach it to your entry in April.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for every item you wish to enter.
6. Open your email.  Start a new email to:stonik@charter.net in this email state your name and list the titles of the entries that you are sending.

7. Attach (usually looks like a paperclip) all the entries you created in steps 1-5.
8. Send the email

*Don't Forget!!!

1) PLEASE print a copy for your guild's AQUISITIONS REPRESENTATIVE so that she has a hard copy of your application and your picture. Acquisitions needs a hard copy so they can properly identify your quilt at submission, set-up and take-down, so your work of art can be shown, and so that you can get your work of art back in one piece.

Please also print a copy for yourself.

2) Please measure your quilt accurately and include any and all embellishments, decorations, fringe, etc hanging off of your quilt within your measurements or it will not fit within the space planned.

3) Please make sure your quilt submission has a 4" finished sleeve that goes as close to the edge of the quilt as possible so it hangs beautifully at the show. If you are not sure how to make a sleeve or have any questions at all about sleeves, please see your AQUISITIONS REPRESENTATIVE for your guild and she will help you with this very important part of your quilt submission.

3) Please submit no more than three applications, for three different quilts, and indicate which one of the three should be first, second and third choice.

4) Please use the garment application for all wearable submissions.
Once again, when using the Garment Application Online, please print a copy for yourself and for your Wearable Arts Representative for your guild.

5) Have fun! We look forward to viewing your works of art!
