The Quilt Life has a challenge for you!  They want you to submit your quilted interpretation of Grant Wood's classic painting, American Gothic. This quilt is one of the most familiar images in 20th-century art and probably one of the most parodied in pop culture and now it's your turn to create a masterpiece.

And here's the best part, selected quilts will be featured in an upcoming issue of The Quilt Life!

Here are a few details to get you started.  There will be more to follow.

  • The piece can be any size, but must be completed - no tops or unbound entries accepted.
  • One entry per person.
  • The piece can be a quilt you have already created.
  • The piece must be recognizable as a twist on the American Gothic painting.  It can even be a reproduction of the original.
  • Submission images (under 10MB in either .jpg or .jpeg format) should be sent here.
  • Deadline for entry is September 30, 2013.

Deadline for entry is September 30, 2013.

If you search the web, you'll find many different "takes" on Grant Wood's image.  For example, here's one from Luke Haynes which he made from old clothes.  Let your imagination run wild!
