Things are going pretty well here with my lifestyle/attitude/organization makeover - but that's not why I'm breaking in here during my break! Megan and Heather from Quilt Story are having a contest! And they value my opinion (for some unknown reason!) enough to ask me to be a judge! I'm flattered and honored to be among the judges for their Block Party!
from Quiltstory:
QuiltStory's Block Party!
Basic idea: YOU (any and all of you) will create quilt
blocks and submit them to QuiltStory's Block Party. There will be three
categories in which you can enter your block. Modern, Traditional and Creative.
blocks and submit them to QuiltStory's Block Party. There will be three
categories in which you can enter your block. Modern, Traditional and Creative.
How to submit: Three weeks from today we will have a
linky party starting 12:01 am MST on Monday February 7th through Wednesday
February 9th closing at 11:59 pm MST. During this time you will submit
your quilt block in one of the three categories, Modern, Traditional and Creative. You can submit up to three blocks.

Categories: You will be the judge of which category
your block falls in to, but it can be only one. Modern or Traditional can
mean the layout of the block or the fabrics. Creative is referring to a
block that maybe has applique, a pieced house block, etc. You don't
necessarily need to be experienced to enter this contest! If you are
unsure or new to quilting, I'd search through Flickr to
get ideas on some quilt blocks!

First Place Prizes
3 yard bundle of Organic Circa 50 Birch fabrics and pattern

$50 Gift Certificate
$50 Gift Certificate
Determining winners: We have fabulous celebrity guest judges to help Heather and I
determine the winners. We wanted to do it this way because first a foremost we
value these ladies opinions greatly! Secondly we didn't want the
popularity of a blog determining a winner based on votes. We will
basically be judging on skill and style and we will not be biased in the least!
The judges are Twin Fibers, SewSara, Flamingo Toes, Diary of a Quilter
and AmyLouWho. Over the next couple of weeks we'll get to know them
better and tell you why we think they deserve to be our "celebrity"
judges!
