Mini Quilt Challenge Part 2 These are the quilts submitted in March for Part 2 of the challenge. We wish to thank all members who participated in the double challenge, the first being placemats and the second being wall hangings. Unfortunately, our quilt show had been upended by the virus, and we missed out on seeing all of these lovely works of art in person! There is a brief description of each quilt at the end of this article. The parameters for Part 2 were: a wall hanging reflecting a theme of the quilt show, either friendship or blooms or 30th anniversary/pearl; use of any fabrics, techniques, patterns, or embellishments, traditional or modern; size between 20” and 30” for either length or width. Now to the voting! You may vote for any 2; the quilts are numbered. Email, call, or text your 2 choices to either of us. Those members who receive the Guild newsletter in the mail will also receive a ballot in the mail (with pictures). Your name will not be connected to your votes, only entered as you having voted. (Trust us!) Everyone votes once, so have your 2 choices ready to go. Deadline for voting is Oct. 19th, one week after our October meeting. Winners will be announced by email blast and here on our website, as well as details about getting your quilts back. There will be 3 winners, a first, second, and third place. Prizes are: 1stis a Candy’s gift certificate together with a fat quarter bundle, 2nd is 2 bundles, and 3rd is one bundle. If a quilter submitted more than one quilt, then that person can only win once; we wish to have our quilters “share the wealth”. Happy voting, and good luck to the entrants! --Penny and Gabrielle ( phone numbers and emails are in the Quilt Guilds Directory)
