2018 UFO Challenge

2018 UFO CHALLENGE

The purpose of this challenge is to use what we have, finish what we start and not buy needlessly. HAPPY QUILTING.

List 6 UFOs on the UFO Challenge sheet (see instructions under RULES. Assign each a number and save a copy for yourself. Turn in the Challenge sheet along with $1.00 per UFO ($6.00 max) to Lois Womack, who will be keeping up with your progress.  For every completed UFO you will receive a fat quarter.  Everyone who completes their list of 6 will be eligible for a drawing to win $100.00. If no one completes all 6 UFOs, then the prize will be awarded to the one who completed the most (in case of a tie, a drawing will be held for the $100, with the runner-up receiving 20 fat quarters).

 How it works:

List the quilt as #1 that is the most near completion; it will be due in March.  In February a number between 2 and 6 will be drawn: the quilt corresponding to that number will be due in April.  (This is necessary in order to finish by December). In April we will draw a number and the quilt corresponding to the number will be due in June.  In June we will draw and the quilt corresponding to that number will be due in August.  In August we will draw and the quilt corresponding to that number will be due in October.  In October we will draw and the quilt corresponding to that number will be due in December.  When you complete your UFO for that month, you will sign in with LOIS WOMACK and show the quilt at Show and Tell.  All completed UFO’s will entitle the maker’s name to go in for the end-of-year drawing for the $100 prize.  In addition, if turned in on time you will receive a fat quarter. However, if you are late, you can bring it to a later meeting for your name to be in the drawing but will not receive a fat quarter.  You must make the UFO number matching the drawn number.
