Hello everyone! Can you believe that Season 11 of Project QUILTING starts in 7 weeks!? Okay – that may seem like a while yet but my work begins now! I’m looking for sponsors for Season 11 to help motivate folks to make their quilts in just ONE week!
About Project QUILTING
Running 12 weeks during January, February, and March, Project QUILTING is a series of online challenges for quilters held on my blog, Persimon Dreams (www.KimLapacek.com). I post a new challenge every two weeks; participants have a week to meet the challenge and link up their final projects to the blog. Then, since it’s a little intense to make a quilt a week, there’s a week off to catch up with life.
Past sponsors have provided gift certificates, patterns, fabric, buttons, postcards, and other fun things which are awarded several ways:
· All completed entries are entered in a prize drawing after the challenge deadline.
· After voting during the off week, a Viewer’s Choice winner is announced.
· At the end of the season, a Grand Prize is drawn. Each completed project is gets an entry, along with a bonus entry awarded to anyone completing the season’s full slate of challenges.
