Announcing Finalists for the QUILT ART: A Quilter’s Alphabet Reader Challenge

Inspired by an article about The Migrant’s Alphabet (see Quilting Arts Summer 2022), we challenged readers to create a 10″ x 10″ quilt featuring an alphabet letter—limited to one of the following letters: A, I, L, Q, R, T, or U. Any technique and design choices could be used, however, special consideration was given to quilts using one or more of the techniques from any issue of Quilting Arts.

We were so pleased with the depth and breadth of creativity we received. Thank you for your continued submissions to our Reader Challenges—your work brightens our inbox and expands our artistic minds! We are pleased and proud to announce the finalists for this challenge!

Please check this list carefully for your name.
