Member Challenge A Challenge Mini is a small quilt inspired by the suggestion of a monthly prompt. “Small” being approximately 12”x12”, but we are modern, so whatever works for you is perfect. The prompt, a single word, or set of guidelines, is announced at our monthly guild meeting. A day or two afterward it can be found on the OKCMQG Facebook page. The minis offer opportunities to experiment and expand creative quilty horizons. Participation in any given month is optional. Jump in - or out - as life allows. The Challenge Mini prompt for May is: Create a quilt or block inspired by paint chip colors representing your initials
Choose 3 paint chips whose color names begin with your initials. Match the chips, as closely as you can, to fabric. Add other fabrics as you like. Create your mini using one or more of the following guidelines: 1. Use only existing scraps 2. Work from the center of your piece, building outward 3. Use improvisational cutting and piecing 4. Use only one shape repeatedly 5. Explore minimalism |
