Challenge Quilts are small works that interested members make in response to a theme and are typically displayed at the guild’s biennial quilt show. They’re intended to foster self-expression, creative growth, experimentation with new techniques … and fun.
For our 2021 show, our theme reflects current events while leaving plenty of room for creativity: Home. While “shelter at home” comes to mind, home could equally be a place, a map reference, a feeling, even a web page. We hope you’ll feel inspired by this theme and decide to enter a challenge quilt for QUILT San Francisco 2021.
As usual, Challenge quilts should be 20″ square, made with any techniques and materials you like. Deadlines and details for submitting your entries will be available later in the year.
