New Quilt Contest - MUG RUGS - Entry AUG 1st to AUG 10th
#22
Since I can't go back and change the first post I am going to leave it with just one this time. But the next contest that is a small project I will allow 2 entries per person. If this one goes over well I will do it again in the near future and can let it be 2 or 3 entries then.

I debated on that one. I wanted to open at least one contest up to more than one entry. but I was concerned that it would mean some people would get lost in the crowd with just one entry if others posted 3 or more. I could limit it to two entries. I also have to watch that I don't make too much more work for Patrice.

Well I can understand when the item for entry is a small thing that it might be good to allow more than one entry. It would also be more pictures to look at and vote for.
My other concern is will everyone understand that each entry needs to be sent as an individual entry. One entry per email. Other wise it would be too confusing.
Any time I post there is always someone who is not sure of the rules or those who don't read the rules.
I know this comes with the territory of hosting. I just want to make sure Patrice isn't overloaded with confusing emails.
I'll give it some thought as to how to do it if I do indeed decide to allow 2 entries. Time will tell! LOL
What do you all think about placemats as a contest? And I have been thinking about miniatures. There would need to be some size restrictions on that one.
I know the small projects are easier for everyone to fit into their schedule. Any other ideas?

All I meant was it must be related to quilting,. The reason I said it was because I had someone ask me about mixed media meaning she was going to do an entry that used other things besides quilting.
A feature is just an aspect of quilting.. Maybe the style is applique or pieced. Maybe they used origami paper and added a paper pieced fabric flower to their origami paper base. It just needs to be something that says quilt when you look at it. It doesn't have to be a quilt but something that uses a quilt technique whatever that is to you.
You can use anything you want to make yours. It can be pieced or applique or paper pieced or collaged or anything you like. It just needs to fit in the quilt catagorie somehow.
