Good Morning!
Re: Moda Grunge Contest
Good Morning! I hope everyone there is doing well and getting through these strange and trying times. I have my quilt and pictures ready to submit for the Grunge Contest. I know the deadline for you to receive them is 9/1. Is it too early to submit now or should I wait a week or so? Also, do you want printed pictures or can they be submitted through this email?
Take care and have a great day!
