Quilters from across Texas will travel to New Braunfels to participate in Quiltfest 2022, sponsored by the New Braunfels Area Quilt Guild. This biennial show will be held at the New Braunfels Civic/Convention Center Friday and Saturday, July 22 and 23 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The quilting extravaganza will attract prize-winning artists who use fabric as their medium and enter their works of art to be judged in the contest that will ultimately comprise the two-day show. This year’s theme is “America: A Patchwork Quilt.” Hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days. Admission is $10 per day; Children age 12 and under are free.
Quiltfest 2022 will feature over 150 judged quilts. First, second and third place ribbons will be given in each category including theme quilts, bed quilts, miniature quilts and others. Special ribbons will be awarded for “Best of Show” and “Judges’ Choice.” A number of these quilts are for sale. Raffle tickets are available for $1 each or six for $5 for the donation/raffle quilt “American Heritage.” The winning ticket will be drawn Saturday at 4 p.m.
