To participate in any<\/em> month’s challenge, come pick up a $3.00 theme “kit” (word & fat 1\/8 of theme fabric) on or after the first day of the month (not before!)\u00c2\u00a0 The deadline for each month is close of business on the last day of the month (4:00pm on September 30th — a Sunday — 6:00pm on the last day of October, November and December).\u00c2\u00a0 Voting for the “favorite” takes place through the 5th of the following month — we ask everyone who comes into the Store to vote. The winner receives a $10 New Pieces Gift Certificate and a handsome, homemade ribbon, and we display that quiltlet in the Store for the following month.\u00c2\u00a0 If you have been looking for a fun, low-stakes competition to help spark your creativity, come play with us!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
