What was your most memorable meal or food experience?
Where were you when you ate it? Was it at a 5-star restaurant or a neighborhood diner?
A picnic at a favorite site that was invaded by ants? A family meal at home?
Was it high tea? Who were you with, if anyone?
What made that food so memorable?
Similarly, what was your most memorable food experience on the negative side?
Was it the taste of cilantro that set your hair on fire
? That first bite of raw fish or sushi?
There are so many possibilities, each one as unique as you and your food memories. Let your imagination and food memories give birth to a quilt for our quilt challenge in 2024. We want to hear the stories that go with the memory as much as seeing the challenge result.
The parameters for the Challenge are similar to those in the past.
-
There are no limitations in colors or materials used.
-
Creativity is encouraged.
-
Three dimensional pieces are allowed.
-
Your “Memorable Meal” must be on the front of the quilt or clear from the three-dimensional piece.
-
The overall circumference/perimeter should be under 120 inches.
Challenge quilts must be submitted by our meet-ing in May 2024.
Entries will be revealed at the June 2024 Guild meeting.
