The 2019 Challenge is “One Red Square.” Although no specific style nor size is required, each entry must include a piece of at the minimum size a clearly visible finished 1-inch square of one of seven chosen deliciously primary red fabrics, including two silk fabrics, a dupioni and a charmeuse! Inspiration can come from absolutely anywhere or anything. Members are challenged to consider applying the few simple Challenge rules and to stitch and/or quilt their own interpretation in fabric in one, two or three dimensions.
Quilts to be exhibited include traditional, modern & art quilts, clothing, and a variety of styles & techniques.
The show is not juried nor judged, so it encourages creativity at all levels. It is always a great thrill to see someone new to quilting/art quilts show their work alongside long-time quilters.
