Everyone is invited to enter a quilt into the President’s Challenge ’Name that Song’ contest this year. The challenge is to make a quilt based on a popular song. You will have until May to complete and turn in. Anything goes! Pieced, applique, art quilt..anything you want! We will then display them and have a contest to see who can name the most quilts (songs) and prizes for the entries based on various categories. There is an entry form under the “forms” tab on the website menu.

Here is an example of a ‘Name that Song’ quilt that I made in a San Diego guild. It was lots of fun! Can you guess the song?
