Tacoma Challenge

This year's challenge for Tacoma Lakes Quilters is to construct a quilt from Maggie Ball's book, Bargello Quilts with a Twist. A workshop will be conducted November 14 to assist those who need help making their challenge quilts.

Your quilt should consist of 16 blocks that measure 7 inches finished.

After the borders are added, your completed quilt should measure no smaller than 36" square and no larger than 45" square.

Yardages will vary, depending on how many fabrics you choose for your blocks. For a simple 5-color quilt, you'll need about 2/3 yard for the focus fabric, and 1/2 to 2/3 yards for the other 4 colors. See an example of a 5-color quilt on page 54 in the book. 

If you have questions about the challenge, please contact Barbara.
