Quilt Contest!

Are you ready for some fun and excitement in April? If so, we have something that will be just the prescription – our Trip For 2 To Boston Marathon Contest! Here’s how it will work:

1 – Find a quilting buddy who’s also ready for some fun and excitement.

2 – Come to The Joyful Quilter on Wednesday, April 7 to purchase one of 10 “Trip For 2 To Boston” kits (see description below). One $80.00 kit includes a pattern with 2 sets of instructions and enough fabric to make 2 lap quilts (42″ x 54″). We want to see the finished quilt tops back at The Joyful Quilter ASAP, and we’ll be giving prizes to the quilting pairs that get their tops back first, second and third.

3 – Get to work! This pattern is easiest when you work together to get it done, so that’s where the “Marathon” comes in. Get your coffee and chocolate lined up before you start!

4 – Bring your finished quilt tops back to The Joyful Quilter. The First Place team will receive backing, batting and FREE QUILTING for both quilts – that’s a $250 value! The Second Place team will receive backing and batting for both quilts – a $100 value. The Third Place team will receive backing for both quilts – a $60 value.

Here’s what the quilt looks like:

The kit contains 15 fat quarters in graduated colors, which makes the interiors of both quilts. It also includes the borders and bindings for both quilts. And look at the beautiful fabrics you’ll be working with:

So get your friend, get a kit, and get going! We can hardly wait to see the quilts!

Congrats to Q.U.I.L.T., Inc. on a great show!

What a great weekend! Linda and I really enjoyed vending at the Q.U.I.L.T. show in Ravena. It was wonderful to see familiar faces and to meet new quilt friends as well. The quilts in the show were magnificent; creativity and artistry overflowed. We both left a bit tired but inspired as well. Congratulations to the guild for a very successful show and thank you to all who visited and shopped at our booth.
