The Second Annual Dream Quilt 2004

If you are a part of the sleep community, you are invited to join in this sleep awareness effort.

Guidelines:

• Squares are cut 7 inches from off white (natural muslin). Contact Michelle if you would like a precut square sent to you.
• You must leave a ½ inch margin on all four sides of the square.
• Artwork and/or message should be sleep-related.
• A $5.00 minimum donation is requested along with your quilt square submission to help to defray the materials and exhibiting expenses. Checks can be made payable to Sleepy Seeds.
• Have fun with it!!!

Submission Deadline for Quilt Squares: November 30, 2003

Our goal is to have the quilt assembled so it can be on display during National Sleep Awareness Week in the spring of 2004. Throughout the year the quilt will be exhibited whenever and wherever possible to bring sleep awareness to the public eye. Do you have an idea or space available to have the quilt on display in your local area? If so, let me hear from you!!

As an introduction to this project these are just a few ideas to help get your own creative juices flowing.

• Appliqué
• Embroidery
• Fabric paint (Puffy paint is not recommended. It gets sticky.)
• Fabric crayons
• Fabric markers
• Collage
• Photocopies (produced on an iron-on transfer)
• Stenciling

If you have any quilting experience, please feel free to contact Michelle to share your thoughts, time, and/or efforts. Input from some skilled quilters would be especially appreciated!
