La Conner in Bloom: Tulip Festival Challenge

April 1 - 30, 2013

La Conner's Gaches in BloomDo the tulips and other flora of Washington inspire you? Here’s your chance to create a quilt or fiber art piece AND benefit the Museum! We invite you to create and contribute a small piece that will be displayed in the Museum beginning April 1, 2013.

All pieces will be priced at or below $250, and proceeds will be used to fund installation of the Commemorative Brick Pathway. This event raised over $1,500 for the Building Fund in 2012. Thank you for your participation!

Please keep the piece at or below dimensions of 24” x 30” and add a 2” hanging sleeve when appropriate. Affix a permanent label on back of your work with the title and your name. Please include a note with your name, address, and phone number for our records. Turn in your piece by the end of March.

We encourage you to be creative and experiment with a variety of materials and techniques.  You can help us quilt, knit, weave, stitch, cut, dye, and embellish our way to funding the Commemorative Brick Pathway set to be installed mid-2013!

 

 

Call 360-466-4288 if you have any questions.
