Small Pieces - MQG challenge


The Modern Quilt Guild hosts a charity quilt challenge every year for local guilds and individual members.  The charity quilts will be displayed at QuiltCon.

The prompt for QuiltCon 2019 is Small Pieces (read more here) and the required fabric colors are all these pretty shades along with white and cream.

I am a member of the Triangle Modern Quilt guild and we've chosen to build our quilt with improv house blocks made with small pieces (an inch or less).  (The blocks are inspired by a quilt by Jaquie Gering.)

What fun I had making my blocks!


I've got some fabric left and may make one more!

Have a wonderful day! Patty

  4. Houses filled with tiny improv and together with the color combo make these welcoming little houses. Great job!
