Quilt Show Challenge 2014

It's a busy weekend with our Quilt Show now in full swing. This first post from the Quilt Show contains the "Challenge" entries. The Challenge this year was to make a wallhanging using the fabric from a shirt and to include it's buttons too. All the entries also had to have a photo of the original shirt with them too.

There are three sections of the Challenge,
Bronze is for members who have never entered a Challenge before (there is only one winner)
Silver is for members who have entered before but not won a placing in the Silver Section (1st and 2nd place winners)
Gold is for members who have won a place in the Silver Section in previous Quilt Shows (1st and 2nd place winners)

    They are all interesting. I find it hard to believe that "Wash Day in the Islands" wasn't a winner. It won me over.

    I thought this was a great challenge and some amazing results... Maybe the local 'op shops should have a space with the merchants????
