Quilt! Knit! Stitch!

Deadline: (UNSPECIFIED)


Quilt! Knit! Stitch!
International Quilt Festival
Oregon Convention Center
Portland, Oregon
August 14-16, 2014



Quilt! Knit! Stitch!™ will feature exhibitor booths, quilts, and fabric art on display, and many educational opportunities on the show floor. But what will set it apart from the International Quilt Festivals currently held in Cincinnati, Chicago, Long Beach, and Houston will be a greater emphasis across the board on needlearts like knitting, embroidery, crocheting, cross-stitch, tatting, and sewing.

We require the following from prospective exhibitors:
 A letter from you indicating the quilt show/s you are interested in, and that your company has been producing or selling its product lines for one year or more;
 A recommendation letter from a business associate in the industry; and
 Product samples or photo/s of the items to be sold at Festival, such as a catalogue, a sample pattern, or other substantiation of the line of products to be cleared by the Festival Screening Committee. Keep in mind that we are a textile-related show and we require that at least 75% of the merchandise you bring to Festival be related to this theme. Please only submit items that do not need to be returned.

BOOTH INFORMATION
The basic booth size is 10' x 10'. Included in the booth rental fee are the following: one 6' or 8' table, two chairs, simple lettered booth identification sign, and a listing in the Quintessential Quilt show program. It is our company policy to release booth pricing information only after the screening process and your company has been accepted.
