AP&Q's 15th Birthday
Cover Quilt Challenge

Have you made our 15th Birthday cover quilt? If you have, then here’s your chance to win a brand new Brother Innov-is QC-1000 sewing machine valued at $2,199 and have your quilt published as a project in AP&Q.

This is your opportunity to join the ranks of Australia’s top quilters and have a project published in Australia’s favourite patchwork magazine, with its photograph on the cover. This competition is open only to quilters who have never had a project published in Australian Patchwork & Quilting.

The quilts are judged on their visual impact, design, use of colour, and overall creativity.
The winner’s name, and a photograph of the winning quilt published in Australian Patchwork & Quilting Vol 18 No 5, on sale September 2009.
