A couple months ago, I issued
a challenge to my readers to create a project using
Art Gallery Fabrics Round Elements and link up the first week on October. Seven challengers unveiled a broad assortment of beautiful projects. You can see their process shots on social media at the #QMChallenge hashtag.
Jayne from Twiggy and Opal made
Get to the Point, a wall-hanging incorporating her free
Star Thistle pattern. The geometric quilting compliments the paper-piecing so nicely.
Renee of
Quilts of a Feather made Curvy Clutches using the
free pattern from Pink Door Fabrics for some appreciated teachers. As a teacher turned stay-at-home-mom, I think this is an awesome gesture.
Betty Cruikshank at
Sew What Now made a quilted jacket for one very lucky
four year old great granddaughter. I admire this project greatly, as I have very limited apparel-making experience, and an almost four-year-old daughter who would adore such a jacket, if only her mom had Betty's sewist skills.
Sharon at Yellowcat Quilt Designs multi-tasked on the challenge, using blocks from
Tula Pink's 100 Modern Quilt Blocks she made as part of the #100Day100Block Challenge with the
Shadow Block Mini Quilt pattern from Studio Dragonfly to make this gorgeous quilt.
This table runner was created by
Connie of FreeMotion by the River using her
Piano Keys pattern, which is available for purchase on Craftsy.

Betty won a prize bundle featuring all these goodies.
Thanks to all who participated. I enjoyed the wide variety of inspirational projects, and was impressed by each and every one of you!

ReplyDeleteIt's been such a busy week that I just now saw this! Thanks so much for hosting the challenge! Everyone made such lovely things.
ReplyDeleteI had one more item finished but didn't get a post written for it in time to enter it into the challenge. I'll be working on that post this weekend if life settles down a bit. :)
Thank you for the great prize!
Wow! I love the flying geese, in super jealous of the jacket, and the Halloween bag is genius and adorable!
ReplyDeleteThe prize package you sent to me arrived today. I love all of it. I was tickled to see a girls dress pattern included. That is going to be fun. Thank you Afton, for all the goodies.
