JUDGING:

The Annual Springville Museum of Art Quilt Show is a juried competition. Quilts are screened by a panel of experts before they are displayed in the show. After the panel qualifies the quilts, they will be displayed and the quilts will be judged for ribbons/awards by qualified judges. Each quilt participating in the exhibition will receive critique feedback from the judges.

Debbie Breivik

I have been quilting (or should I say piecing) for about 15 years.  I love using batiks and bright, contrasting colors in my quilts.  I have been a member of the Utah Quilt Guild for 6 years when I was "shamed" into joining by a very dear friend and mentor.  I just bought a longarm and am looking forward to learning that part of quilting.  I have learned so much and have met so many amazing people in the quilting world.  I am currently serving as the Secretary of the Utah Quilt Guild and I'm looking forward to learning lots more about this amazing art form and the people that create it.
