Congressional Quilt Show Resolution of 2026
Expressing support for the establishment of a Congressional Quilt Show to recognize and honor American quilters and their craftsmanship in the Nation for over 250 years.
This bill, HR1161, proposes to support the creation of a Congressional Quilt Show. The aim is to recognize and honor the long-standing tradition of American quilters and their craftsmanship, which has been a part of our nation for over 250 years. The show would highlight the skill and creativity of quilters across the country.
The bill would primarily affect quilters and the quilting community by providing a platform to showcase their work and receive recognition at a national level. It would also involve members of Congress and staff who would help organize and participate in the event.
HR1161 was introduced on April 9, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on House Administration for further review. This is the current status of the bill, and no further actions have been taken yet.
