The Modern Quilt Guild is having a wonderful Project this year - it started Sept 1 2010 - and ends a year later.
http://themodernquiltguild.com/2010/08/16/project-modern/
There will be four challenges during that time.
Challenge One: Make a quilt based on an inspiration of your choice. When submitting your entry you will have to submit a photo of your particular inspiration, along with a photo of your quilt and a few paragraphs explaining your quilt. How does it relate to or display your inspiration? Must be at least 45" x 45". Due November 30, 2010
ADDED 10/21/10: I did not do this challenge - here are the winners! Great projects!
