WHAT is the Quilter's Dream Quilt Challenge?

The Quilt Challenge is an opportunity to participate in a Viewer's Choice quilt competition using a Quilt Challenge fabric bundle as a launching pad! There are fun prizes and it is also an opportunity to inspire creativity in our quilting and sewing community. Every year we hear amazing notes of gratitude from quilt challenge viewers and we are always astounded with the creativity of each entry! Everything from quilts to bags, pillows to garments, wall hangings to doll clothes have been created and have inspirited so many viewers! Your only limitation is your imagination!
