SAQA annual benefit auction – 2026.08.07

SAQA’s Annual Benefit Auction will take place online from September 11 through October 4, 2026.

Each year, SAQA invites each of its members to create a small 12 x 12 inch piece of art and donate it to the annual SAQA Benefit Auction.  The auction has a dual purpose – to increase the recognition of quilts as art and quilters as artists, and to raise funds to support SAQA’s exhibition programs and education outreach activities.

With more than 360 pieces of beautiful artwork available for bidding, there is something for everyone to enjoy! These artworks have been donated by SAQA artists from around the world. You can see them all on the SAQA website here. Think about which you might want to bid on when the auction opens on September 11th. Or just enjoy browsing through hundreds of mini works of art!

This is my entry for this year – ‘Heat Waves’. Read about how I made it here.

This is the fourteenth year I have submitted a piece to the SAQA auction. As you can see below, I like to mix it up and use a variety of techniques. Although this year’s Heat Waves is pretty similar to last year’s Wild Curves.

Thanks for stopping by.

I’m linking up with Nina-Marie’s Off the Wall Friday, where you’ll find many other creative and inspirational projects.
