Every other year, Chino Valley Quilters hosts a public Quilt Show including the display of members' quilts, a competition, boutique, bake sale, demonstrations and workshops, raffles, a vendor fair and more. There is a minimal fee to attend. Proceeds go to support our programs and volunteer work in the community.

Explore Quilts
Quilt Show is a special time to view and discuss hundreds of quilts and how they were made, and meet others interested in quilting. It lets members and guests explore quilting ideas, learn techniques, find supplies and form new friendships. The display includes bed quilts and small projects in every style, from traditional to modern. The exposition may include antique quilts, quilts by young people in our After School program, a Quilt of Valor booth and featured works by a long-time member. It also includes a competition judged by members and guests.

Shop 'Til You Drop
Each show also includes opportunities to purchase quilting supplies, handmade crafts, homemade baked treats and, of course, quilts. Our Show Boutique is stocked by members with handmade quilts, crafts and quilt-related items for sale. Members also make a tasty variety of sweet and savory goodies for our Bake Sale area. On the main show floor, our Vendor Fair includes quilt shops, fabric and notions shops, sewing machine purveyors, authors, quilting consultants and community organizations. Proceeds from our Boutique and Bake Sale go toward our educational programs and community work -- and to host more Quilt Shows!
