Stonehenge 10th Anniversary Celebration
with 2 different challenges.
THE STONEHENGE BLOCK PARTY
March 15th, 2019 – September 30th, 2019
Northcott has created a Stonehenge Block Party that includes over 400 shops across North America! Each participating shop is designing and selling kits for a unique block pattern using fabrics from the Stonehenge Solstice 10th Anniversary collection. You can travel from shop to shop to collect these limited edition blocks.

How It Works
- Quilters are challenged to use 12 or more different blocks from the Stonehenge Block Party in a quilt design
- The quilt top must be made of 100% Stonehenge fabrics from the Stonehenge Solstice Anniversary collection with the option of including the Gradations Oxidized Copper palette and the Robin’s Egg green SKU 39300-79. The quilt backing can be any fabric of your choice. The quilt must be finished – quilted and bound.
- Take a photo or photos of your finished quilt and submit via Northcott’s online submissions page by December 31st, 2019. As part of your submission, you will be asked to include a list of the shops whose blocks are included in the quilt.
- The Northcott judges will select 10 finalists and have them send in their quilts for a final round of judging. They will choose a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winner!
March 15th, 2019 - November 30th, 2019
To add to the fun and provide more opportunities to win prizes, each participating Block Party shop will be hosting a Solstice Panel Quilt Challenge!
How It Works:
- Quilters are challenged to use the Solstice panel in a creative way to make a quilt no larger than 60”x 60”. The quilt top must be made of 100% Stonehenge fabrics from the Solstice Anniversary collection with the option of including the Gradations Oxidized Copper palette and the Robin’s Egg green SKU 39300-79.
- The quilt backing can be any fabric of your choice.
- The quilt must be finished-quilted and bound. The binding must be a Stonehenge fabric.
- Each participating shop runs their own in-store contest and accepts their local entries.
- You must physically submit your panel quilt to your local participating Block Party quilt shop by November 30th 2019. That shop will judge entries and pick a winner of the Stonehenge Precut prize!
