This week-end is NATIONAL QUILTING DAY. They have a FREE project you can download. It's a different kind of "Log Cabin". Judy L is doing a Quilt A-Long this week-end. She's already posted step 5. I'll be at the Tri-City Quilters Quilt show. The FREE Motion Quilting Project Blog is having a 'Transformation" Challenge too. It starts April 1st $10 Registration Fee. Forms and Photos aren't due until July. Another Do-ABLE?? Accuquilt is having a Barn Quilt Challenge. DEADLINE is April 10th It's only a picture of one block. that's Do-Able, right?? What will you win? • 1st Place: $1,000 AccuQuilt Shopping Spree along with a trip for two to AccuQuilt for the design unveiling • 2nd Place: $250 AccuQuilt Gift Certificate • 3rd Place: $100 AccuQuilt Gift Certificate Winners will be announced at the AQS Quilt Show & Contest in Paducah, Ky., April 27-30. Wouldn't I like to be a fly on the wall that day?? They announce the Alliance Quilt winner then too! REMEMBER, I have a quilt there? The Entries and Fabric Challenge quilts for the Krazy Horse Quilter's Quilt show is soon. April 16th to be exact. Show is April 30- May 1st. I have quilts to enter but I don't think I'll be able to attend. AND... McCall's is doing the 2011 Design Star Deadline is May 1st. HERE is a post at Piece and Quilt about last year's WINNER, Her Mom, Kathleen! They live in UTAH! The International Quilt Market is in Salt Lake City, UTAH this spring. This is similar to the "Trends" I went to with Lynn in Portland last week-end. Not for the Public. But I want to go... only one drawback--it's Mother's Day week-end and I have two grandbabies still coming. correction: it's not Mother's day week-end... yea! DREAM on Grandma...
