Fat quarters are all the rage right now.
Why? Perhaps because they're relatively inexpensive? Or
because of their convenient size (approximately 18" x 22") versus the
regular cut quarter-yard (which is 9" x 44")? Fat Quarters, referred to as FQs, are very
collectible! Thus, the purpose of this activity is to be able to
collect FQs without a huge investment. How? The answer to
this question lies in the title of this page: A drawing!
Each month, a color or
special fabric pattern/theme is chosen by the hostess
and then provided on the
Quilting Passion Forum. Participants purchase FQs, using the
general
guidelines and monthly guidelines (given below), then e-mail the
Quilting Passion Interactive Forum Fat Quarter Drawing Hostess,
DebiLohri1, with the number of Fat Quarters being entered into the
drawing (maximum of six FQs). Each FQ becomes his/her "entry"
or "entries". Once you submit the total
number of FQs you are entering, you then receive a
confirmation e-mail from Debi telling you where to
mail the FQs. For each FQ that you send, please include one first
class postage stamp (currently a 39 cent stamp). Please, NO
FLANNEL or low-quality fabrics.
Once Debi receives your FQs, your name
goes into a "hat" the same number of times as
the number of FQs you mail. In other words, if
you mail three FQs, your name goes into the hat three
separate times for that month or if you only submit one FQ, it goes in once, and so on.
At the end of the month
(around the 20th), all of the names of everyone
participating in the FQ Drawing are shaken very well and
a single name is drawn from the current month's
participants. That lucky person receives a package
containing all the FQs submitted for that month.
In the
event that we have a large number of FQs (30 or more?)
submitted for any given month, the FQs are to be
divided and there will be more than one name
drawn (dependent on the number of blocks submitted). It is also
important to note that no one can win two months in a row.
All fabrics should be 100%, good quality
cotton. Label each FQ according to the instructions on the forum.
Sound like fun? Want
to join? If so, either contact
Debi via e-mail or log onto the Quilting
Passion forum FQ 2006 Startup Discussion Thread (free membership) and look for the "Fat Quarter Drawing"
folder for more information.
