The Little Block Challenge - 2008

In conjunction with The Crafty Quilter we are setting out a design challenge available to all quilters.
Called the Little Block challenge, it started out in 2006 as a little challenge between myself and my daughter Joanna
using a simple block and a few design parameters. However, we were both amazed at the diversity in our
finished quilts (shown below) that we decided to open the challenge to quilters everywhere to see what you could come up with.

Here are the results of our personal 2008 Challenge

The rules are simple: make a quilt approx. 1 metre square using the 4" block below, together with some appliqué bias work.

And that's it!

You can use whatever fabrics you choose and it costs nothing to enter.

Note: the block may not measure 4" if you print it from this webpage.
You will need to either download the MS word/PDF  entry form file - link below,
 draft the block yourself or send for the entry form by post.
Closing date for entries is the 31st October 2008

These are our 2007 Quilts
and the 2007 Block

 For details etc. please write to:
The Contented Cat, Flint Cottage, Treacle Lane, Rushden, Buntingford, Herts., SG9 0SL
 with a stamped addressed envelope and I will send you an entry form.
