"Hundreds of quilting enthusiasts from across the province have requested entry forms and 98 others have already entered the competition," says Cindy Lindsay, museum promotions and public relations supervisor. Winners of the $500 first prize, $400 second prize and $300 third prize will be announced • in early June 1984. All quilts will be on display at the museum until the end of August. The province has also invited her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II to attend Ontario's bicentennial celebration marking the an- tuversary of the first major influx of settlers in the province. If she accepts, the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food will pre- sent her Majesty with the first place quilt and introduce the winner to her at that time. The five judges who will select the winn- ing quilts will base their decision on workmanship, originality of design and the quilt's depiction of Ontario's bicentennial heritage. All quilts must be received by the museum no later than May 1, 1984 and all in- terested participants should register by Dec. 31, 1983.
