Project QUILTING, Season 4, Challenge 6–Hurray For Spring!

March 20, 2013 by persimondreams Leave a Comment

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!  Do you have any plans for corned beef and cabbage or green beer today?  We don’t have many plans for the day…I was going to make some pistachio pudding but it looks like I might just have dye some vanilla pudding green.  We have three small drippy noses around here so we’ll be laying low. Can you believe that the very last challenge of Project QUILTING is just below the words I’m writing now.  I hope you’ve all had as inspirational of a time as I have had so far.  Before we get to the challenge I want to start with the Prizes that are up for grabs!

 

The Prizes

Everyone who enters a quilt into this weeks challenge, in the time frame given and following the challenge’s guidelines, will be entered into the random drawing to win the following prizes from our incredibly generous Project QUILTING sponsors: Project-Quilting-1 $20 to Fat Quarter Shop fw2 Surprise fabric prize from Fabric Worm Quilts for a Cause 2011 $30 off long arm quilting of baby quilt or larger from Marcia’s Crafty Sewing & Quilting StashBag_All6_web A *Stash bag from For Quilts Sake Quilting by Quilts by Barb $25 off Long Arm Quilting from Quilts by Barb dye candy sampler 24 dye cut 10″x10″ pieces of hand dyed fabrics from Dye Candy quilting lodge 5 $20 to spend at Quilting Lodge! *Stash Bags – Each Embellishment Stash Bag includes three pieces of coordinated fabric totaling 3/8 yards, three coordinating yarns totaling approximately 300″, 20 small beads, five focal beads, and two buttons.

The Challenge – Hurray for Spring!

  1. I am so ready for spring! I’ve seen enough snow. I want to plant seeds and watch them grow. So, the inspiration for Challenge 6 is ‘Hurrah for Spring!’
  2. Your project does not need to be a traditional quilt, but must meet at least one of these requirements:
    1. Include patchwork.
    2. Include appliqué.
    3. Have 3 layers stitched together by hand or machine.
  3. Your project must have a name.
  4. Please remember that these projects need to be created during the week of the challenge.
  5. POST your entries with a description of your creative process, including where you are (ie, I create in Madison, WI) and the size of your project by Sunday, March 24th, 2013, by NOON, CST, to this flickr group, Project QUILTING with Persimon Dreams –OR email a picture/description of your completed project to {lapaceksorchard at gmail dot com} with PROJECT QUILTING in the subject line. ***If you don’t have a print publication but want to participate –email me {lapaceksorchard at gmail dot com}.  I’d be happy to choose a random page 28 and send you the picture of it for your inspiration. If you wish to receive critiques on your piece – the good and critical – please add your photo’s to this group as well:  http://www.flickr.com/groups/1628629@N24/ Are you stuck?  Need a little ‘Tim Gunn’ advice during the week?  Or are you just so excited on how things are going along and what to share your WIP?  We have a group for that!http://www.flickr.com/groups/1430386@N24/ If this is the first Project Quilting challenge you’ve participated in, please email Kim at {lapaceksorchard at gmail dot com} with PROJECT QUILTING in the subject line.  Please include your name, flickr name, email and a website if you have one.
