January 2010 Dear Quilters, The Barnegat Historical Society is pleased to announce our annual “Quilts Along the Bay” show. This year’s show will take place on Saturday, September 18th and Sunday, September 19th, 2010 at the Barnegat Community Center on West Bay Avenue in Barnegat, NJ. We are hoping for your participation to make this a successful event. I am also pleased to announce this year’s challenge category. “What’s Your Inspiration?”. Inspiration comes from many sources. For example, maybe you were inspired by a landscape, a painting, a special person or a piece of architecture. The possibilities are endless. If you enter this category, please try to include a picture of your inspiration to be displayed with the quilt. By the way, your interpretation does not necessarily need to be literal. Enclosed are the rules, registration forms and important information about the show. Please feel free to copy the forms if needed and share them with other quilters who might be interested. All necessary forms are also available on our web site www.barnegathistoricalsociety.com . We are looking forward to seeing some old friends and meeting some new ones. If you have any questions or would like to offer your assistance, please feel free to contact me at (609) 698-3323 or by e-mail at JameyOT "at" aol.com. Thank you in advance for you interest. Sincerely, Jamey Stofko Barnegat Historical Society |
