An Ocean of Quilts

The colorful world of quilting comes alive over three days: April 1, 2, 3, 2027 in Georgetown, Delaware. Thursday 10 am to 5pm, Friday 10 am to 5 pm, Saturday 10 am to 3 pm.

Take a walk through our stunning quilt exhibit, featuring over 200 exquisite quilts crafted by talented quilters. Each quilt tells a story, reflecting the passion and dedication of its creator. From traditional patterns to modern designs, visitors will encounter a diverse array of quilting techniques and styles.

In addition to Raffle Baskets, Raffle Quilts and a Vendor Market, the show will feature a lecture and trunk show by acclaimed quilt designer, instructor and author, Timna Tarr. Visitors will also have the opportunity to vote for their favorite 30th Anniversary Challenge Quilt, made by members of the guild. Quilt Appraisals will also be available.

With onsite catering, and free parking, we invite you to join us for all three days! Located mere miles from Delaware’s beautiful coastline, you will want to come for the quilts, and stay for the beach. Discount hotel rates are available for our visitors.
