final judging. The work will now compete against others within its category. Three quilting authorities will judge this WEDDINGS & ENGAGEMENTS group prior to the opening of the show. The individual quilt named best of show will garner the AQS Best of Show award, and a $7500 cash prize. Regardless of how the quilt places in the final judging, all 322 quilts will be displayed at the annual quilt show. The annual quilt exposition brings more than 25,000 quilt enthu- siasts, collectors, needle artists, and vendors to Nashville each August for this consumer show. Quilts are no longer relegated to serving just as bed cov- ers. Many of these works, made with fabric and thread, are designed as art for the wall, according to AQS President Meredith Schroeder. The quilts in this year’s contest are from around the world, and feature beautiful palettes of color. Entries are from 41 U.S. states, and five other coun- tries, including Canada, France, Australia, Japan, and the United Kingdom. There are five categories in the judged contest. The cate- gories include Quilter’s Choice, On the Wall, the Ultimate Guild Challenge, and new SewTech and Needlework cate- gories. In addition to the contest, there will be eight special exhibits of quilts: $100,000 Quilt Challenge, Teachers’ Showcase of Quilts; Expressions 2006: the Art Quilt; Rose of Sharon: New Quilts from an Old Favorite from the Museum of the American Quilter’s Society; MetroTextural: Art quilts by the Manhattan Quilter’s Guild; Tropical Jesse Halstad and Ana Mendoza Treats: the Hawaiian Quilts of 2 Sisters; Anything Goes Handbags; and Miniature Quest. In addition, sewers will Mendoza-Halstad have the opportunity to stitch at the Baby Lock USA Quilts for Kids booth to make charity quilts for children.
