This is it: our final challenge week for the season. Thanks for joining me – I’m Trish Frankland (aka QuiltChicken) and I’m visiting today to unveil your Project Quilting challenge!
- 5 inspirations (so far): Mythical Creatures, Ombre, Common Blocks, Birthstone, and Follow Your Arrow.
- 1 bonus challenge, pending for those who purchased the This or That fabric bundle.
- 1 museum exhibit featuring Project Quilting pieces
- About 500 creative projects, completed
- 100s of artistic visions
- and I want to take a moment to thank the ONE woman who started this and keeps it going so we can all have a little quilty fun. Kim Lapacek, you are a powerhouse. (*I’m blushing***)

16.5 Button It Up

Rule One: Your project must be inspired by “button it up.”
Incomplete or unfinished does not qualify. Every challenge piece must be a FINISHED project seen through from INCEPTION to COMPLETION during the challenge timeline.
Link up at the bottom of THIS PAGE by Sunday, March 23rd at noon CST (here’s a link to time zone converter to calculate for Central Standard Time: www.thetimezoneconverter.com)
- Add to the linky the URL of your project’s blog post, public instagram picture, or public facebook posting. This post – How to Link Up a Link Up may help you. At this time, if you choose to link up to an instagram or facebook url you will have to manually upload the picture to go with it – look at the section “upload a link” on THIS POST to see how to do this.
- Alternately, by 11am on Sunday, March 9th you may email a picture and description to {projectquilting@gmail.com} with PROJECT QUILTING in the subject line. Yes – that deadline is one hour earlier because it requires more work for Kim.
Good luck, and remember to HAVE FUN! Don’t forget to post progress pictures because that’s part of the fun.
