Time Flies Whether You're Having Fun or Not!
2017’s Festival Challenge is a special one. We are celebrating our 20th Anniversary! Each kit contained a timeless vintage quilt block. The challenge is to incorporate the block into a quilt or fiber art piece representing “Time.” We also encouraged everyone to take a before-and-after picture of the square they got in their kit.
Don't forget: entries are due to the Museum by August 31, 2017. We can't wait to see what you've done! Download Entry Form here. |
