President’s Challenge

2025 “A Quiltmaker’s Inspiration”

Once again, Riley Blake Designs has generously offered to provide a one half yard cut of fabric from their new line called, “Confetti Cottons” to each guild member who participates in the 2025 President’s Quilt Challenge. 

Quilt Requirements include:

• The quilt needs to relate to the theme, “A Quiltmaker’s Inspiration.”
• Use the fabric provided by Riley Blake Designs prominently in the quilt. Add other fabrics to compliment the chosen half yard of “Confetti Cotton.” 
• The quilt can be rectangular or square, with a width from 32 to 52 inches, and a length of 32 to 64 inches.  
• Any combination of pieced or appliquéd techniques may be used, as well as any type of embellishments.
• The quilt must be entered and displayed in the President’s Challenge Special Exhibit at the 2025 Quilt Show.  
• Entry form must include a brief paragraph relating to your inspiration in choosing the particular fabric and quilt style. This description will be included on the placard that will be attached to the quilt during the show.
• A 3” square of the chosen Riley Blake Fabric must accompany the entry form.  It will be attached to the placard at the show.  

The fabric provided by Riley Blake will be available at the January 28, 2025 guild meeting.  Members must commit to making a quilt for the 2025 President’s challenge by leaving a $20 deposit when choosing a fabric.  The $20 will be returned to everyone completing the challenge and displaying a quilt at the 2025 Quilt Show.  Riley Blake will also provide a gift to each quilter who participates.  

Please encourage your fellow quilters to participate in this challenge as a thank you to Riley Blake Designs for their generous donation of fantastic fabrics.
