Pat Sloan kicked off a sewing challenge that began on the Winter Solstice, December 21, 2016 and will run until the Summer Solstice come June 20, 2017. Every Wednesday, she posts on her website, I Love To Make Quilts, a free-to-download quilt block pattern. Pull some fabrics from your stash and start sewing. A bonus for joiners is you’ll get to see firsthand how a quilt is designed.
The Blocks released so far include Churn Dash, Day Into Night, and Tide Pools.

Good Morning Scarlett! I hope that all is well? I have missed not having your posts to click on and see what wonderful quilt item you are bringing to our attention! Pat has quiet a few quilt sew alongs going on right now. I just joined one that looks like it will be a lot of fun and uses scraps! Thank you for sharing and have a fantastic creative day!
