TACTILE ARCHITECTURE™

Light at the End of the Tunnel (56” x 47”) by Becky Ray. Inspired by a photograph by Eric McCarty (www.TriOutdoors.com) and used with permission. Inspired by the work of Esterita Austin.

Buildings have a long history of inspiring the creative designs of quiltmakers. In the 19th century, American quilters developed classic architectural patterns such as Log Cabin, Schoolhouse, and Brick Wall. This annual juried exhibit challenges quiltmakers to create works based on architectural themes and inspirations.  

  • Limit two (2) entries per person.
  • Each work must measure a minimum of 36” on each side.
  • The quilt can be NO LONGER than 94” ON A SIDE.
  • There is a $20 submission fee per quilt.
  • The works must be made between 2019 and 2022.
  • Artists pay for the shipping of the quilt to Houston and back home to the artist.
  • This call closes on June 2, 2022.
