Happy New Year! And Merry Christmas! The theme for our 2023 Festival is “Celebrating Christmas,” but we want to see your quilts in any style or color.

As I write this message, we are celebrating the new year of 2023, and my Christmas decorations are only recently put back in storage. As we gear up for the 2023 Festival, we should get that Christmas spirit back out and celebrate! What fun! It’s time to make your final plans on which quilts you intend to enter, and work to finish those projects. My plan is to take time to enjoy this process, and to actually complete a quilt to enter this year.

Have fun, and I’ll see you in June. Happy quilting!

Barb Green, President, WVQI
