Memorial Mini-Challenge
The mini-challenge is on! The 2024 mini-challenge theme is “Put a Bird On It.” There must be a bird, recognizable as a bird, on your quilt. You must use at least one-third of the hand-dyed fabric provided (get
it from Lynn Daly!) on the front of your quilt. That’s it.
Except for the nuts and bolts below:
Quilts may be any shape (square, rectangle, octagon, etc.), as long as they fit in a square measuring 20”x20”.
A miniature quilt is a scaled-down version of a larger quilt. It should not be easy to determine from a
photograph whether the quilt is small or large.
In addition to piecing and quilting, other techniques such as appliqué or embroidery may be used in the
construction of the quilt. You may also choose a 3D design as long as there is no projection of more than
two inches.
Your finished quilts are due at the July 9, 2024, meeting.
To enter, provide your name and the name of your quilt (written on a piece of paper) to Lynn Daly either
at a Guild meeting.
The deadline for entry is July 2, 2024.

The Dream in Fiber Challenge
Join us in making a dream materialize! Create
something you’ve always dreamed of making,
or make something by a method or with a
material you’ve dreamed of trying, or even make
something you’ve actually dreamed about, in
any fiber medium.
For this challenge, please make a wearable, an
accessory, jewelry, or a decorative item other
than a wall hanging. To be accepted into the
challenge, the item must be at least 50%
visible fiber content, other than fabric.
Please bring entries to the November meeting
for member’s choice voting. You will be
asked to submit a brief statement about what
dream inspired your entry. All participants are
encouraged to enter their items in the Quilt
Show.
To sign up or ask questions, please contact Juli
Neal or Donna Ireland.
