The Washington Stars Quilt Guild Fall Challenge required participants to make a small quilt using a letter of the alphabet and a paint chip for inspiration. The letters and paint chips were drawn at random and placed in sealed envelopes. Each participant drew a sealed envelope to begin the challenge.

We challenged our customers to create the Perfect Plaid Picnic Placemat to go with our Perfect Plaid Picnic Quilt. They rose to the challenge with a picnic basket full of creativity and hearts full of charity. Many entered because they know we will forward any unclaimed placemats to the Washington Stars Quilt Guild. The Guild donates home made placemats to the "Meals on Wheels" program. These placemats would brighten any meal. No ants invited! Please make sure to click on the thumbnails to see the whole placemats.
