2012  LITTLE BITTY QUILT SHOW RULES

THEME: Animal Kingdom

1. For the purposes of this contest a quilt is defined as three layers: top (fabric), batting, and backing (fabric). The quilt can then be made into another form such as a pillow, purse, pin, postcard, etc.
2. All entries must hang for the duration of the show and may not be removed for any reason prior to designated pickup time.
3. Quilts must have been completed in the past three years.
4. Quilts must have a 3-inch wide hanging sleeve (pillows, purses, etc. are exempt from this requirement).
5. All quilts must bear a permanent label with the name of the quilt, the maker’s name, address, and phone number.
6. The maximum size of any quilt will be 24” on the longest side. Round quilts may not exceed 24” in diameter.
7. Anyone may enter a quilt, but the AACC will not accept more than two (2) entries from any one person.
8. The quilt must be quilted by the person(s) on the entry form (no pre-quilted fabrics).

11. Quilts, entry forms, and entry fees must be turned in at the Center between Monday, June 11 and Monday, June 18, 2012.
