BRAIDWOOD QUILT SHOP CHALLENGE 2010
CHRISTMAS MAGIC
Whether you believe in Santa Claus or not he is here to stay, and what is the harm in a little bit of make believe?
This year the Challenge fabric is by Fabric Freedom of the UK from the range Magical Christmas.
The challenge is to use the fabric supplied. Combine it with other fabrics of your choice to make a small quilt. You can be as creative as you like or maybe choose something traditional.
The rules are easy. Please take the time to read them :-.
1 The finished quilt must measure 60cms x 60cms.
2 Any technique may be used, applique, pieced, painted, embroidered etc etc.
3 The challenge fabric must be used within the surface of the quilt.
4 Use as many fabrics as you please but the amount of any one fabric must not exceed the amount of challenge fabric used.
5 Don't forget to sew a rod pocket to the back.
