The popularity of quilting has exploded in both number of quilters and amount of time and money that they dedicate to their passion. And there’s only one organization that promotes and supports that art form with members from all over the planet: The International Quilt Association! The International Quilt Association (IQA) is the world’s only 501(c)(3) non-profit quilting organization that promotes the appreciation and art of quilting around the world. In 1979, the four founders—Karey Patterson Bresenhan, Nancy O’Bryant, and their mothers, Jewel Pearce Patterson (1910-2002) and Helen Pearce O’Bryant (1914-2005)—set out to create a group that would bring together the varied factions of the quilt world. Quilt collectors, teachers, artists, retailers, suppliers, and just plain quilt lovers have all joined IQA to help further its goals and form a sense of community—and you can be a part of it! Members receive IQA’s online quarterly journal, Quilts…A World of Beauty, featuring informative articles, interviews, book reviews, organizational news, a Teacher’s Directory, Judged Show winner profiles, and scores of stunning, full-color photos of quilts from all over the world. You also receive special privileges at both editions of International Quilt Festival (Chicago and Houston) unavailable to non-members. This includes a Preview Night entrance (and extra hours) and a private photo opportunity in Houston, one additional day’s free admission at all shows, a chance to enter your quilt in the annual Judged Show, “Quilts: A World of Beauty” or apply for a grant. And best of all—you get to keep your awardwinning entry, since IQA’s awards are not purchase prizes! In 2015, total prize money awarded was $94,250!
