Quilt Hints: A few helpful hints to qualify for the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies (OAAS) annual championship quilt competition.(Hand quilted and Machine quilted Competition)
- · Quilts are sponsored by the OAAS. For the prize-winning hand quilted competition, the winner will receive $500 and keep their quilt. For the machine quilted competition, a Grand prize will be awarded and the winner will keep their quilt/wall hanging.
- · Entries must be solely made and hand quilted by the exhibitor. Machine quilts must must be solely made by the exhibitor and machine quilted on a short arm machine
- · Entry hand quilts must be a minimum of 72" x 90". Smaller quilts will be eligible in their categories at the fair but will not be judged for the OAAS. Machine quilt/wall hangings are to be measured on the perimeter. The total perimeter measurement must be a minimum of 192" or 480cm. The entry can be square, rectangular, etc.
- · Only the first place quilts at the local fairs will be eligible for competition at the District level.
- · The binding must be a separate piece of material, not the quilt back turned over. Watch for pencil lines, blood spots, threads caught on the back or top piece before putting it together. Keep the quilt square. Don't show dark in seam allowances, meet lines at each intersection, take selvage off before making the quilt.
