Monthly Color Challenge Setting Instructions!

by poweredbyquilting · December 15, 2018

This is it! The end to the 2018 Monthly Color Challenge. I can't believe how quickly this year has passed and if you've been following along, you have a really awesome quilt! If you want more details on the challenge, read about it here.

Jen from Patterns by Jen designed different setting instructions for her 12 block challenge both for the 12" blocks and 6" blocks. You can get Jen's setting instructions from her blog here.

Closer to the end of the month when I post the reminder for the end of month link up, I'll be posting setting instructions for a 24 block quilt. You can download my setting instructions for free until January 15, 2019, by clicking the button below. If you are reading this after that date, you will need to purchase the Monthly Color Challenge Pattern from my pattern shop. The setting instructions will not be sold individually.

Typically for 12 block quilts, the quilt is too small for my liking. I wanted a much larger quilt so I came up with this design and it finishes at 72" square. This quilt was quilted by the amazing Rhonda Walker of Olie&Evie. The instructions include a coloring page if you would like to change the location of the monthly color blocks.

There is still a giveaway for entering the December challenge, you will need to post your block or project on Jen's blog during the last week of the month. No need to worry, I'll be posting a reminder to link up closer to that time. The winner this month will receive a Fog Modern Backgrounds Colorbox Bella Solids fat quarter bundle from the Fat Quarter Shop!

Don't forget that all the entries of every month have been put into a grand prize drawing! The grand prize is provided by Jen at Dizzy Quilter. The generous prize provided is getting your quilt top quilted by her (up to 90" x 90"), a $202.50 value! You must provide the backing, 8" longer than width and length. Batting can be purchased from Jen, for $20, if you like. Return shipping is included for US residents only. **Please note, the quilt will not be trimmed or bound, those services are extra**
