Challenge Quilts at ECQG

Yesterday was Challenge day at guild.  This year’s challenge was to make a quilt about your best friend.  Here are the quilts that were shown.

Number 1 won as the best use of theme and number 4 won as best quilt.  Number 3 had a large number of votes but they were split between theme and best quilt.

The next challenge was introduced and it is titled “Make Do”.  The basis of the challenge is that you can purchase nothing to make the quilt.  Everything must be made from what you have on hand or what you can trade with someone else.  No going to the quilt shop and no use of kits, regardless of how long they have been in your stash. 

It seems to me that a selvage quilt would fit in this new theme very well.
