1. The following are the requirements for all quilts. The quilts can be of any design except the Olympic logo, rings and torch. There are many other restrictions on the use of Games logos, trade marks and designs; words and the bespoke London 2012 font, known as 2012 Headline. If you would like the complete document with the restrictions please send us an email. Please see the games web-site www.london2012.com for other restrictions on logos and words, please ensure that you view these restrictions before starting any quilts. You will need to go to the home page and in the search bar type in 'using the brand'. This will take you to a page with all the downloads you need to look at. If you have problems please contact us and we can email or post you the pages.

We have a pdf version of the logos, branding and restrictions so please email us if you would like a copy sent to you.

There are Listed Expressions too which are restricted. "Listed expressions are determined as - any two words in list A or any word in list A with one or more of the words in list B"

             For example, if you wanted to put wording on your quilt you COULD NOT USE
   "Games 2012" or   London Summer Games or Gold Medals 2012 etc.                
                                                                                                                        
   You can not use ANY of the olympic logos or trade marks or images.

2. All Quilts should be a minimum of 40" x 40" square up to 54" x 78" and comprise of the top, wadding and the backing.

3. Quilts must be quilted either by hand or machine, no tied quilts, and a hanging sleeve, it muct be at least 5”as it has to take a 4" wide wooden baton and be attached to the back of   each quilt. The sleeve is VITAL as without one we can not exhibit your quilt. If you are unsure about attaching a "hanging sleeve" please get in touch with us.

4.  Each quilt must be signed by the quilt maker(s) on the back by means of a label, which needs to have your name, address or place of residence, title of quilt and your registration number. NO REFERENCE TO THE GAMES CAN BE MADE ON THE LABEL. It would be nice to also include separately with the quilt(s) a letter, photograph or even a message for the recipient which can include references to The Games. 

5.  Your “gift of a quilt” will not be required until 31 October 2011, the Team attends many shows in the UK and it may be possible to arrange a handover, this will save postage costs.
