The Old Bags Challenge was way too much fun for all. The participants were given and old bag filled with a fat quarter of, quite frankly, a very ugly fabric along with buttons, beads, ribbons, trims and who knows what else. They were to make a quilt no smaller than 8 x 10 inches, and no larger than 16 x 20 inches. The prizes were a sewing machine, a $100 gift certificate to Pieceful Quilting and a $50 gift certificate. We ended up with a tie for third place so we had TWO 3rd place winners. The staff also got into the act, but their quilts were not judged. Her are some pictures just in case you can't get into the shop. The quilts will be on display until Feb 23rd and you can vote for viewers choice. The viewers choice winner will receive a "big 'ol bag"!

These little quilts are just wonderful! I am amazed at the creativity. I have to admit that one of those fabrics is really ugly!
