Think I may try this. Surely, I can do a small quilt in 5+ weeks.
|
good! i definitely want to do this!:)
|
This sounds like fun.
|

Probably won't happen with my schedule, but can you enter more than one?
|
Just one quilt per member in this contest. I may open it up to more than one in the future but not now.
|
Sounds great Rhonda!

RAK means random acts of kindness.
Quilty Louise has been keeping addresses she receives and sending things to people who may need a lift. Over time she has been asked to add people's names to her list. So if you are interested in adding your name to her list here is her link - you can send your address in a pm Quilty-Louise http://www.quiltingboard.com/images/...er-offline.png |
I may have to give this a try.
|
Will check out what I have made out of my UFOs that may be used here. I bet I have an entry.
|
I will give it some consideration... as a newbie, I have some reservartions though. LOL.
SIncerely, Tricia |

|
nancia The entry date goes until Oct 10 so you could still make one between the 2nd and the 10th if you want to. It's up to you tho.
|
OK I'm in! I think... Gotta get busy and come up with an idea. So the 10th is the deadline???
|

I didn't limit this one in any way other than size. So an art quilt will fit right in just fine.
Yes the last day to submit an entry is Oct 10. I hope to see lots of entries!!! |
Mine will be there for sure.
|
Sent my pictures to Patrice!
|
I couldn't resist the lure of this contest, so I made my mini-quilt today. It's pieced and quilted. All that's left is the binding and to figure out how to best hang it. I should have that done by Wed if my boss doesn't want me to work overtime, and this is definitely a possibility. I'm very much looking forward to photos. Hopefully we won't see the competition until the deadline is over, though. Is that how it works?
Happy Monday, everyone. |
Pictures will be posted by Oct 14 so everyone can vote. You'll have 10 days to vote on the entries
|
Hoping to enter mine this week!
|
Over to e-mail for entry. Excited to see others, as well.
|
Ah, that was exciting, got my entry mailed off. This will be a very pretty show for us.
|
I'm looking forward to seeing all the entries!!
|
I have to bow out of this one as my creation I was working on ended up about 20" not 18". I'd start on another one
but don't really have time. Maybe next time! Good luck to those who enter, I can't wait to see them and vote! |
OK, I figured out how to cut out a couple of inches! YEA! Now all I have to do is finish my binding and send my pictures in! It may be late tomorrow before I get the pictures sent so I hope midnight is the deadline.
|
You'll be fine as long as you get the emails sent tomarrow some time.
