Seattle MQG is having a quilt challenge! It's been several years since we've had one, but hopefully a lot of members will participate. Entries are due by our September meeting, and thus far, at least two exhibitions (three counting online) are planned. I knew right away I wanted to participate.
The theme of the challenge is "I Heard It On the Radio." Honestly, I don't listen to the radio a lot these days, but a song came to me that I remember hearing a lot in the '70s, so I decided to go with it. The perimeter of our pieces needed to be between 60 and 100 inches, without any obvious symbols or representations from our chosen song. So, with a song in mind, I chose some fabric from stash, a mix of solids, prints, wovens, and linen-cotton blends.
I'm keeping my song a secret for now, but I do have a 'hint' of a photo, taken on one of my walks. AND one of our guild members, Lorinda @lorinda.b.davis, made a play list of all our songs! Isn't that cool?
If you want to see more of the entries, check out the #SEASongQuilt hashtag on Instagram. I'll share just a bit more about this quilt's inspiration and the guild's exhibits later on.
