Participants must use a Baltimore Album pattern of their choice to hand appliqué.

The blocks must be completely of hand applique.

The blocks must NOT be quilted.

The Guild will provide a 16" background fabric and a fat eighth of green fabric to coordinate with other colors as traditionally used in Baltimore Album blocks. The finished design must fit into a 11 1/2 inch square and be centered in the 16" background square provided by the Guild. Do not trim the block down to a 12 1/2 " square. This will allow space to construct the quilt without sashing as was done in the original Baltimore Album quilts.

The background fabric provided must be the fabric used as the background. The background and green fabric will be provided upon request to anyone desiring to enter the contest. All fabric used in the block must be 100% cotton.

If you would like fabric and an entry form mailed to you, send your request and a self-addressed, stamped envelope to the Quilt Shoppe.

All fabrics must be washed and color set (does not fade) prior to constructing the block. The fabric you receive from the Shope will be pre-washed. When pressing your appliques, best results are received by laying the block on a folded thick towel with the appliqued side down.

Participants may enter two blocks and must complete an entry form with each block.

Entries must be received by 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, August 26, 2008.
