Lark Books has announced an online Quilt It! Contest running from October 15 to January 5. The contest is open to the public and invites crafters to create and submit a photo of a quilt. The quilt has to be made with 3 of 5 elements — birds, mountains, silver, recycled materials, and paper.
There is a grand prize of a $100 gift certificate to Hancocks of Paducah and 11 quilting books from the Lark collection. Four other category winners will each receive 11 quilting books.

A new book entitled 500 Art Quilts is scheduled for release in March, 2010. It is published by Lark Books.
Several African American quilters will be featured in the book. One of them is Renee Allen of Atlanta, GA. Her quilt call Hallelujah! is shown below. You will definitely want to add this book to your quilt library.
If you have a quilt in the book, drop a comment so that we can all make a special effort to look for it. Thanks!
Hallelujah! by Renee Allen
