Don’t Touch My Quilt: A Guide to Polite Quilt Fair Etiquette
Hey there, fellow quilt enthusiasts! So, you’ve spent countless hours meticulously piecing together your masterpiece, and now it’s finally on display at a quilt fair. There’s just one problem – people can’t seem to keep their hands off it! Don’t worry, I’ve got your back with some tips on how to politely stop those eager fingers from getting too close to your precious quilt.
Set Up Clear Signage: Sometimes people just need a gentle reminder. Consider placing friendly signs near your quilt that kindly ask viewers not to touch . A simple “Please admire with your eyes, not your hands” can work wonders.
Engage with Visitors: Stand near your quilt and strike up conversations with interested viewers. This not only allows you to share the story behind your creation but also acts as a subtle deterrent against unwanted touching.
Be Direct but Polite: If you spot someone reaching out to touch your quilt, don’t be afraid to politely intervene. A friendly “I’m so glad you like it! Please refrain from touching, though – I want to keep it in pristine condition” should do the trick.
Use Physical Barriers: If all else fails, consider placing a velvet rope or stanchions around your quilt to create a physical barrier. Most people will understand that it’s off-limits
Remember, most people don’t realize the potential damage their touch can cause, so approach the situation with patience and understanding. With these strategies in mind, you can confidently display your quilt knowing that it’s safe from unwanted handling.
So what about all the other stuff? all the silly questions? we have you covered for that too.
