The OAAS (Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies) Quilt Competition: The winner will be chosen from among the first prize winners (which meet the criteria) in the Quilt Sections 1 & 2. The winner(s) in this category agrees to compete at the District 2 level annual meeting in November, 2026. The winner of District 2 then competes at the OAAS convention in Toronto in February, 2027. The exhibitor will need to agree to have the quilt considered. The chosen quilt/quilts become 'Best in Show'. If no Quilts meet the criteria for the OAAS competition, ‘Best in Show’ will be chosen by the judge.
