.....VFHQ Challenge 2007/2008
.....Pennsylvania
- Choose any landmark, historical event, flora, fauna, tradition, location, or motto that conveys some essence of our great state of Pennsylvania and devise a way to creatively express it in a quilt (which you will, of course, design and create).
- Use any construction technique and any fabric you wish. And you may use components that are appliquéd, pieced, embroidered, cross-stitched, painted, embellished, etc., or a combination thereof.
- You must include with your submission a typed description explaining the aspect of Pennsylvania you chose and any relevant rational for your design. Your description should be between 50 to 75 words (no more than 100 words) using 12-point type (or standard typewriter size), on a card or paper no larger than 8½ x 8½. (If you don’t have access to a computer or typewriter, a neatly hand-printed description will be acceptable.)
- Your creation can be any quilted item (including jacket, bag, etc.).
- The size of a quilted wall hanging should be no larger than 50" on any given side.
- Your creation should be something made during the coming year (between 10/2007 and 9/2008).
- As usual, one entry per-person will be accepted.
- Completed challenge quilts will be displayed and voted on at the September guild meeting in 2008.
All questions regarding this challenge should be directed to Linda Hamel at 610.454-1283.
