The 2013-2014 PRINT is a needlework creation by textile artist Nhia Lo. There are only a limited number now left, so if you plan to take part in the Competition, contact Nick Shaver at PPFA.
On a background fabric approximately 6.5 inches square, the image is 4-by-4 inches. The hand-made appliqué and reverse-appliqué quilt block features hand-dyed Batik fabric over magenta or rose-colored accent fabric on a tan background. There are tiny, hand-embroidered stitches, and all fabrics are 100 percent cotton. The design is a traditional Hmong design, but this particular color combination will be exclusive to PPFA.
PPFA also offers the International OPEN Competition, where almost anything goes and you can indulge your creativity without restriction! (Please note: SIZE restrictions do apply)
PRINT pieces are available from Chapter leaders. If you don’t live in an area served by a PPFA Chapter, you are considered to be in the “Mailbox Chapter” and can enter the Mailbox Chapter PRINT and OPEN competitions.
The finals will be held during PPFA 2014, Jan. 18-22 in Las Vegas, where the PPFA Annual Convention will once again be held concurrent with the West Coast Art & Frame Expo/The National Conference. Competition entries will be displayed for attendees to admire and vote for their Popular Choice!
For a description of the new PRINT piece, visit the PPFA Competition page. Entry forms are available at the bottom of the PPFA Competition page.
