A few weeks ago, I got the most beautiful box in the mail! Filled with Free Spirit solids in colors hand picked by Denyse Schmidt.
I was asked to participate in a contest called the Modern Solids Challenge with several other bloggers. We'll each be making a 60x60" quilt using the box of Denyse Schmidt Modern Solids, and the design must be inspired by a traditional quilt pattern or concept. Sounds like fun!
I have finally figured out my design and should be starting to sew next week! I've decided on a color scheme too, which is always my favorite part.
I'll be sharing my progress on the quilt both here and on IG over the next few weeks, under the hashtag #modernsolidschallenge. You can check out everyone else's progress there too! You'll be able to vote on your favorite quilt as well once they're finished.
