Annual Quilt Challenge

2026: Faces

View 2022 Challenge Quilts

challenge details

Our 2026 challenge is playing with faces. It is not necessarily a self-portrait (although it could be), but just a project to help you perhaps get outside of your comfort zone, and just play. Be Creative! 

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

Maximum perimeter: 60″

Minimum perimeter: 48″

Shape does not matter (square, rectangle, circle, free-form)

While it is not a self-portrait, it should show your personality! Think about who you are and what your passions are. 

It must have 3 layers (top, batting, and backing), and be quilted or with some kind of stitched embellishment to hold the layers together. Remember to have a finished edge and a label. 

The reveal is the July meeting, NOT BEFORE! At the end of that meeting, Pat will hold onto them for the Quilt Show in the Fall.
