There are 15 different categories to choose from within the Festival of Quilts Competition, including both “Sustainable Quilts” and “For The Joy of Sharing” categories which were new last year. 

Need help choosing your category? Watch the recording of ‘A Question of Categories’ Webinar with Judi Kirk here. 

The theme for Young Quilters’ for 2024 is ‘Precious’.

Please note that there is no longer a separate category for Schools, but if you’re a school wishing to enter, please enter the Group category and ensure you tick the box to state you’re a school (to ensure the piece is judged fairly). 

There is no Quilters’ Guild Challenge this year but the Guild are planning something special for members in 2025. More details to follow soon!
