Call for Quilts! Group Quilts

Do you have a quilt where the blocks came from numerous quilters? Maybe a Block-of-the-Month quilt or a birthday quilt made by a group of friends? Quilts that result from the work of many different hands are tricky. Like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get!

If you'd like to share a photo(s) of your group quilt for exhibit in the up-coming "Online Quilt Museum" please email them to karengriska@optonline.net. Include the name of your group, who assembled the quilt, where you're from, and the title of your quilt. Thanks!

The quilt above was made by Margaret Cibulsky, Ellen Foster, Helen Beall, Karin Eckert and Linda Andrews, members of Empire Quilters in New York City. It was inspired by the December 2009 Block-of-the-Month, "Amish Buggy Quilt." I really like this one!
