Our 2021 UFO Club is here!
Join the Cary Quilting Company
2021 UFO Club
(it's free!)
We all have unfinished projects, started with the best of intentions. Wouldn't it be great to finish them up in 2021? Now you have a few great reasons!
** New for 2021 - there's a way you can join and participate virtually on Facebook!** Click here for a link to our Virtual Participant group online.
For the "old fashioned way to play", in January, come in and sign up to be a club member. You should bring in any quilts that you've started and want to finish (up to 10 projects). You can complete the top part of your forms at home, or we have them here too. As you finish phases of your projects, bring us your show-and-tell and your forms to earn points!
During January, February and March, your job is to sew, sew, sew! We are happy to help you with the quilting and binding, if you'd like!
At the end of March, whether you've finished everything you entered or not, be sure to bring your quilts and forms, and we will add up your points for the big prizes!
On April 1 (no fooling!) we will calculate your points, and announce our UFO Club winners for this year.
First prize wins a $50 shop gift certificate!
Second prize wins a $30 shop gift certificate!
Third prize wins a $10 shop gift certificate!
But wait, there's more!
Since you will be a card-carrying member of the UFO club, you receive a
10% discount on:
Backing fabric
Binding fabric
Thread
Batting
Longarm quilting services (!!!)
Binding services
for all registered projects, good through March 31st of this year. Even if you don't win for the most points, you win by getting a nice discount on what you intend to finish! This is a fun way to beat the winter blues, and an easy way to start a positive New Year's Resolution, don't you think?
The Details
"Big UFOs" are 3600 square inches or larger, and "Little UFOs" are 200 - 3599 square inches. Projects are deemed UFOs if the project has been started before registration.
Point assignment (how many points your project can earn) will be confirmed by the Cary Quilting Company staff when you register. Point breakdowns can be found on the downloadable forms.
Only quilts qualify as UFO projects. Bags, pillows, rugs, etc. don't count for this club, though they are lovely to create and (more importantly) finish!
You can get started by downloading, printing, and completing your registration forms.
We hope you decide to play along!
