Upcoming Quilt ContestsEach year Robert Kaufman Fabrics sponsors at least one quilt contest. Each contest is unique with its own themes, rules, deadlines & prizes. Top quilts are usually part of a travelling exhibit. The Life Love Hope Quilt Challenge features the Joie de Vivre cotton quilting fabric collection by Luana Rubin and supports the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Grand prize is a Bernina Aurora 440 Quilter's Edition sewing machine. Other top tier winners will receive Robert Kaufman fabric, YLI thread assortments, and/or gift certificates and their quilts will travel in a nationwide exhibit. Entries for the 2006 competition must be received by February 16, 2007. http://www.robertkaufman.com/lifelovehope/ Fifty cents per yard of the wholesale cost of this product goes to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation, dedicated to preventing breast cancer and finding a cure in our lifetime by funding clinical and genetic research worldwide.
