  2. Your finished quilt and a completed entry form are due back to me no later than the regular February 2007 guild meeting. If you are unable to attend that meeting then you must make arrangements to get your quilt to me before then. No late entries will be accepted.
  3. The quilt must consist of 3 layers,(top, batting and backing). held together with stitching. You do not need to put a “sleeve” on the back.

    For example, a 25 inch by 25 inch quilt is okay (25” X 25” = 100”).
    A 25” X 30” quilt is too big and would be disqualified. (25” X 30” = 110”).
  5. Your quilt must include at least 8 square inches of each of the three fabrics in the kit. You may add as many as 5 other fabrics of your choice.
  6. Somewhere on the front of your quilt you must include a heart –in the fabric, the piecing, the quilting, as an appliqué, or as an added embellishment.
