CJMQG Modern Quilt Exhibit at QuiltFest of NJ XI 2015

This year, we were honored to be asked back to the Quilt Fest of NJ for a second Modern Quilts exhibit. The show took place from March 5-8, 2015. We hope that our modern quilts gave attendees food for thought and that they inspired them to think outside the box!


We couldn't have participated without the help of our volunteers! Members voted anonymously on all submissions from the guild (using a scale that measured various elements of modern quilting with one likability question). These volunteers also set up and took down the exhibit. Thank you everyone for your help!


Here were all the quilts in our exhibit. Our members are so talented!
