Instructions

This issue will feature a handful of moving and inspiring cat-related quilt stories from you, our readers!  We’re looking for happy stories, funny stories, and even the sad ones. If you have a story to share about a special cat, don’t furr-get to send it our way!

Please note: The intention is to pick our favorites and have a writer reach out to interview you for this article, so, while a well-written story is indeed helpful, it doesn’t have to be print-ready!

In addition to your story, you may also add up to three high-resolution images (4 MB or larger) of a cat—or cats—near a quilt or in your sewing space. Be creative and send us that special shot that captures our shared love for our cats and our quilts. Any quilt/cat combination will be considered! If possible, please include your name in the file name, along with the image number. For example: jane-smith-01.jpg, jane-smith-02.jpg, and jane-smith-03.jpg.

When you submit photos or stories for consideration, you grant Quiltfolk full permission and rights to publish your images in any format related to Quiltfolk CATS, including social media, printed promotional materials, and related products or publications. (This also applies to photo captions and artist statements about the quilts.) We will do our best to give full credit to the quilter and/or photographer when images are used, but some photos may be used in promotional materials without being credited.
