THE RULES:

• Finished quilt must be 20-inch square

The beauty of the Exhibit is the cohesive color, size and fabric.

• Use only the fabric provided in the bundle.

The entire quilt top and binding must be made from Cherrywood Hand Dyed Fabric. You may order more fabric as need.

(The backing does NOT have to be Cherrywood.)

• Take inspiration from the theme: The Red Poppy

• Use a limited color pallette.

No other colors of fabric may be used.

You may add embellishment/technique (thread, paint, ink, beads, etc.) in other colors, but the challenge is to stay within the limited palette.

We offer an exclusive collection of Aurifil threads to play with! (optional)

 • Use any technique

The art piece must have a top, middle and back held together by quilting stitches. Since this is a contest sponsored by a fabric company, we are looking for work that shows off our fabric.

• Use any embellishment

The art pieces travel around the country for over a year and must be able to withstand the journey. Refrain from the use of items that will detach or damage other pieces (such as glitter).

• Get creative and try something new!

There are a limited number of spots (225) in The Traveling Exhibit. By entering your quilt into this challenge you must understand that your piece may not be selected to travel. The jury process is subjective and should not be taken personally.

Make a quilt that YOU love and that makes YOU happy!
