I currently belong to 3 quilt groups/guilds. The state guild puts on a yearly quilt show. However there is also another state guild for Southern AZ [I don't belong to that one] that also puts on a yearly quilt show.
My local, not state affiliated guild has just started putting on shows every 2 years, our second one will be 2014.
The faith based group does not have a quilt show but has a distribution nights. The Saturday before the actual worship area is decorated with many of the quilts, so that they are up for the Sunday services. Then the distribution night is on that Tuesday. This is where the quilts are given out to the various groups that receive the donations.
