Portfolio Gallery

Portfolio 2024: the Best of 2023 is the current FRCQ annual online juried members’ exhibit.

The juror for Portfolio 2024 was Deborah Fell.

From Deborah:

It has been an honor to be the juror for this beautiful, comprehensive exhibition. The overall quality of the exhibition is exceptional. Besides the honor of being the juror, the task of jurying a show is a great responsibility. Rather than responding to the work subjectively, I created a rubric/grading scale to ensure that objectivity remained intact. Each quilt was evaluated independently and given a score based on different categories such as attention to detail, do the elements relate, and effective use of design principles.

Enjoy our newest annual, online, juried members’ exhibition!
