Black & White and one other Color – the fund raising committee challenge all the members of Berkshire Quilt Guild to participate in this fun project by creating a quilted item within the guidelines outlined below. At challenge end, the quilts become the property of the guild, and will be sold at Brookside Quiltworks to raise funds to support our programs.
Guidelines:
- Entries can only be made using any
black or white fabrics and one other color.
Gray tones are not allowed unless that is the chosen “other” color. Embellishments and threadwork can also only
be done in black, white or the chosen color.
The “other” color can be shades of the same color or solids but cannot
be a color that fades from one to another; for example, an orange that fades to
yellow.
- The quilt can be of any shape, but
the combined total of all sides of the quilt cannot exceed 160 inches (a 40 X
40 quilt equals 160 “). There is no
minimum size requirement.
- Your entry can be a placemat, table
runner, framed print, wall quilt or other.
Any presentation is allowed.
- Your entry can be constructed using
any technique you choose. (Applique, pieced, paper piecing, or mixed, other).
- The entry must be completed, i.e., quilted
or tied and bound. There should be a
sleeve attached, at least 4 inches for larger quilts and 2 ½ for smaller quilts
and must be attached in a way that it doesn’t show when the quilt is hanging.
- A label should be attached to the
back of the quilt identifying the maker, the date, the name of the quilt (if
applicable) and any other pertinent info you wish to document your quilt with.
- Prizes and ribbons will be awarded to
the top winners by popular vote.
- Enter as many times as you want,
there is no limit.
- Due date is the March meeting.
- Quilts will then be hung at Brookside
Quiltworks for the months of April, May and June and will be available for sale
to anyone interested. The price of each
item will be determined with input by the quilt maker, the fundraising
committee and Brookside Quiltworks.
