New contest!-- accessories contest! Enter july 1st-july 10th
 
Accessories Contest


Any style any technique!



Best of show - $20

Suggestions for Accessories - something you might carry or wear as an accessory

Purses / Billfolds /Checkbook covers / Key chains / Cell phone Case /Tote bags / Diaper bags / Makeup kit / Scarves you would wear(not for furniture) and if you have a suggestion just run it by me first before you make it so I can approve or not.

If you made a pieced or appliqued wearable entry such as a vest I would consider it an accessory as long as it is quilting of some sort

This contest gives you two months to prepare for it so I hope people will send in some entries!! It is a broad range of things you can enter. I hope to see some activity on this one soon!!

Rhonda 05-02-2012 11:14 AM

To keep this contest showing in the Daily Digest and in Recent Topics I need to get some interest going here. So if you are interested or have a comment post here!

I have a big bin of fabrics and findings to make totes, reusable shopping bags etc. - does the entire project need to be quilted, or can it have some unquilted areas and some quilted areas? Some of my fabrics are home dec or outdoor canvas, could be tricky to try to quilt something like that!

No it doesn't have to be quilted. That's fine.

sounds like fun! Thanks for setting this up Rhonda.:thumbup:

Rhonda 05-06-2012 10:29 AM

Anyone working on anything to enter in this contest? I hope we get a good turn out for this one. You have almost 2 mos to get your entry ready!!

JuneBillie 05-06-2012 10:46 AM

I was looking around, and had never really read about this area on the board. I understand all the entry rules, but do those taking part send in the pictures with their instructions of all their steps, or do they actually also send in the finally finished item to be judged?
Thanks - I just wanted to know so if I ever decide to enter one.

The entry is yours to keep. You just send in a picture or pictures of what is required so they can be posted for everyone to vote on. Usually in the case of a quilt we have people send in the front of the quilt the back of the quilt and a couple of close ups. Since that isn't possible with one quilt block I posted a progress picture instead. You don't need to send directions just the pictures.

JuneBillie 05-07-2012 10:19 PM

Thank you Rhonda.

Yes I'll allow it. I said something you carry and I guess you carry a Kindle so okay.

MaggieBB 05-10-2012 09:38 PM

New to This Thread, Would you think apron and/or potholder sets would be considered accetable entrys?

MaggieBB 05-13-2012 07:49 AM

Waiting kind of impaintly for answer to my question, someone very busy with other things???????? Hoping for an answer soon, 2 months flys by for some of us!

Rhonda 05-13-2012 09:59 AM

Sorry I had 4 grandkids over the weekend the youngest being my Avatar Colton who is 17 mos. Yes I was busy and then we took them to my sons for a grill out yesterday for supper. I spent time with my 4 great grands there also Serenity 5 mos and Adrianna 2 1/2 Jayden 3 1/2 and Alisha 6. I hadn't seen Serenity for a couple of months and Adrianna or Bug as they call her I hadn't seen since before Christmas.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I think the apron would be fine as I said anything you wear or anything you carry. I think the hotpad I will do a contest just for them. So if you want to hold it back I will post one for them in another month or two. I am thinking maybe that would be a good one to allow more than one entry. Not set in stone yet but it is a possibility

Rhonda 05-17-2012 02:03 PM

I hope someone out there is working on an entry for this contest!! I am looking forward to seeing all those accessories!! We need lots of people to enter so we can have an exciting contest! Hope to see some more people get involved!
