MLQG 2020 Exhibit Challenge Info


MLQG's raffle quilt for 2020 is made of strings and strips of all sorts of fabric. Many members have worked together to created real beauty out of scraps!  The raffle quilt will be revealed soon, but in the meantime...

Now it’s your turn. Our Challenge Category for the 2020 Exhibit is "2020 Strings and Things". The challenge is to create a quilt 20 inches by 20 inches made entirely of strips of cloth that are 2 inches or less in width when cut.  They may be long and narrow strings or short and narrow strings. You might sew several similar color strips together to cut a larger piece. You might do something totally improvisational (There’s a workshop coming in October on improvisational quilting.) You could adapt a traditional pattern. 

Let your imagination run. Go find some fun strings in your stash! It’s a challenge! Let’s have a bumper crop of challenge quilts for our 2020 exhibit!
