Quilt Show

About this board game

Quilt Show is a competitive quilting game for 2–4 players, with approximately 45 minutes of play time. Collect fabric cards, exchange them for block tiles, and race the clock to create quilts worthy of prize money.

Quilters devote time and skill to building their fabric stashes, seeking specific colors and neighboring hues for a nuanced, scrappy look. Sales offer tempting opportunities to gather fabric for later, while hand-dyed colors can help fill gaps when the desired shades are hard to find.

During the game, fabric cards become the building materials for your quilts. Block tiles can be combined into one or more quilts at a time, and each quilt must use blocks united by a single color or a single pattern. Managing your collection and deciding when to complete a quilt are central to making the most of your time.

• Collect fabric cards and exchange them for block tiles.
• Build one or more quilts using blocks of a single color or pattern.
• Enter quilts in three shows as the clock marks each scoring moment.
• Earn purchase awards and compete for the most prize money.

Three times during the game, the clock announces that it is time for a quilt show. Players enter their completed quilts, and prize money is awarded. The best results come from making strong color choices, combining blocks skillfully, and using limited time effectively.

At the end of Quilt Show, the quilter with the most prize money wins. With its blend of collection, set building, timing, and quilt presentation, it captures the satisfying challenge of turning a carefully chosen stash into award-winning work.
