Quilt challenges are some of my favorite ways to start (and finish!) a project! I love having a limited focus delivered by the challenge whether it be a color palette, style, theme, skill, or tool. And I love a deadline for getting things done! I recently wrote about the now underway season of Project QUILTING challenges. This month, Show Me Something That's a Challenge, that is, a quilt you've finished from a challenge prompt. This can be something from a past challenge or something new you finish this month. Please linkup up to 3 projects.
If you've participated in any kind of quilt challenge in the past, please linkup what you've made. If you're looking to try out a quilt challenge for the first time, here are a few options in January:
Project QUILTING 12.1: Illuminating + Ultimate Gray (January 10 deadline)
Project QUILTING 12.2: theme announced on January 24. (January 31 deadline)
Pantone 2021 Artisan Challenge (January 29 deadline)
Covid Mini Quilt Challenge (January 7 deadline)
Hoffman 2020 Challenge (April 1 deadline)
Or you can choose any past challenge as your prompt for a personal challenge this month! Want a random challenge? Comment below and request a challenge prompt and I'll give you your very own challenge prompt for the month. :-)
Here are some of the quilts (my daughter and) I have made for challenges in past years. (Click on images to read more about them.) I also recently shared specifically about quilts I've made for Project QUILTING challenges.
Possibly My First Challenge Quilt (circa. 2005)
Nine-Patch Challenge
Pantone Ultra Violet Quilt Challenge
Vintage Reimagined Challenge
My Daughter's Red, White and Blue Challenge

I look forward to seeing what you've created for quilt challenges in the past as well as any new challenges you finish this month!
Here are the linkup details:
- The monthly Show Me Something quilt linkup will start on the first of the month and continue until midnight (PST) on the last day of the month.
