The general schedule of a NAQGCON goes something like this.

  • Most people arrive sometime on Thursday, register and meet & greet old and new friends.
  • Friday is a day of classes/workshops and viewing competition pieces.
  • Vendors will usually set up their booths so they are available Friday night and all day Saturday.
  • Quillers set up their individual displays on Saturday morning; the day is spent admiring all of the beautiful quilling, giving & attending demos, and having the public come in to view the beautiful art on display.
  • The voting and announcement of competition winners also takes place on Saturday.
  • Sunday brunch is followed by more open quilling and/or demos and then those quillers who are not extending their stay leave for home.

Some conferences have "giveaways" and sometimes an auction at the conference.  If you plan on donating any items please contact the hostess for this years NAQGCON as soon as possible . Be sure to mark any items you send so she will know which are to be used for giveaways/auction and which items are for the competition. If you are planning to attend there is a list of forms, rules, etc below that you will need to download, fill-out and send to your hostess. Also if you are willing to be a greeter (to meet the public) or help in any other way, I'm sure it would be appreciated.

Thanks to the generosity of our members who volunteer their services and their expertise we are able to better educate people on the Art of Quilling. Remember the more people who are willing to give classes the better. It allows the NAQGCON to offer a variety of classes and workshops at no extra charge. Don't forget to pack your own quilling tools, glue, scissor etc (they can travel in your checked luggage). You will need extra paper to try out all of the new things you will see and learn.

Gail is waiting to hear from you.
