President's Challenge 2024



2024

Super Scrap Happy

Presidents' Challenge.

Using a minimum of 100 different fabrics create a cohesive quilt. Size does (not) matter – you can make a place mat, or a king size bedspread, as long as you use 100+ fabrics. You are free to use whichever pattern you like. There are many patterns designed specifically for scrap quilters, any of Bonny Hunter’s patterns come to mind. Let your imagination fly!
