Hilary Gooding and Jan Allston are looking to create 12 teams of 4 to take part in a pilot project at this year’s Festival of Quilts (August 6-9th at the NEC, Birmingham) The aim is for each time to start from scratch and complete a quilt during the day. The quilts will be donated to Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity at the end of the Fesival.
Each day there will be three teams participating; they will be working in full view so the public will be able to watch and interact by asking questions!
This is not a competition and there is no knock-out of teams. Everyone will be a winner as they will have achieved somethign very special in aid of a very special charity.
You will receive a free pass in to the NEC for the day on which you are taking part.
For more information and to obtain an application form please contact Hilary Gooding at hilary.gooding@sky.com or Jan Allston at allston.towers@btinternet.com
Applications must be receibved by 1st June 2015.
