Amber and I have had the best time creating quilts using only 5 fat quarters and sharing with you! We love seeing your take on our patterns each month. Thank you for your overwhelming support! The quilting community is so amazing! As a way to say thank you, we thought we would issue you all a challenge and then reward you big time! We want to see what you come up with when given the challenge to only use 5 fat quarters and up to 2 background fabrics! Post your quilt progress and quilt (or quilt top) finish photos on Instagram and tag @gigi’s_thimble and @jedicraftgirl and make sure to use the hashtag #fivefatquarterfuncontest. This is where all the judging will take place. Here are the official rules and all the amazing prizes you can win!
