Quilts4london.org.uk - Quilters, felt makers and embroiderers sought for Olympics Pennant Project

Traditionally in sport, competitors exchange pennants as a sign of friendship. To continue this tradition, and as a memento of their participation in this event, Quilts 4 London is undertaking a project to make a Textile Pennant (or ‘mini’ quilt) for each athlete. The project will give quilters, felt makers, embroiderers, textile artists, in fact anyone who sews, a chance to become part of the Olympic event in London 2012.

The Pennants can be as simple or elaborate as you want, made by anyone regardless of their level of ability or age and using any textile media. Pennants celebrating regional culture & heritage and regional textiles are welcomed.

Please post completed pennants to
'Quilts4London', 39 Hunting Gate, Hemel Hempstead, Herts. HP2 6NX, UK.
