Attend inspiring, free lectures, antique quilt bed turnings, classes and a Quilts of Valor ceremony. Document your treasured quilt with a professional quilt appraisal.

We’ll have a fantastic selection of door prizes donated from our vendors/exhibitors and also quilt stores across the region. Hourly door prize drawings will take place each day of the event.

Our 2022 show had over 800+ quilts on display, including judged and non-judged entries, special exhibits, challenge quilts, antique bed turning and more. 

Shopping opportunities will include many sewing and quilting vendors plus an extensive boutique of quality items made by guild members in the vendor hall area plus a quilt sale in the exhibit hall.

The 2024 OPQG Quilt Show will be held in the E*Plex at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds, 3001 N. Grant Ave., Springfield, MO 65803. The E*Plex is conveniently located in Northwest Springfield just east of the intersection of I-44 and Missouri Highway 13 (Kansas Expressway).

The event will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, September 26-27, and Saturday, September 28, 2024, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Parking at the E*Plex is free and the venue has both handicap-accessible parking and restrooms. The entire complex is on ground level. The Fairgrounds does not offer wheelchair, scooter or stroller rental. If you need this type of mobile assistance you’ll need to bring your own items.
