A Happy Handful - Project Quilting 17.6 Challenge

And now to the sixth and final challenge of Project QUILTING Season 17. Let's go!


Hello! This is Trish, your PQ secret keeper and challenge designer. Let's get right to the final challenge!



Project Quilting Challenge 17.6 - A Happy Handful


This week, we're focusing on size - specifically, smaller projects. What can you make that's able to be held in just one hand? Think outside the "quilt" and sew up a project for something small in stature but full of joy: a happy handful. Pincushions, lanyards, pouches, nametags, organizational buckets, mug rugs and jewelry all fit the brief. Where can your imagination take you?


Rule One: Your project should be held in just one hand.


Projects need to be created during the week of the challenge (started on or after March 15, finished by March 22).


Your project does not need to be a traditional quilt, but must meet at least one of these three requirements:

  • include patchwork

  • include appliqué

  • have 3 layers stitched together by hand or machine.


Incomplete or unfinished does not qualify. Every challenge piece must be a FINISHED project seen through from INCEPTION to COMPLETION during the challenge timeline.


Link up at the bottom of THIS PAGE by Sunday, March 22 at noon CST (here’s a link to time zone converter to calculate for Central Standard Time: www.thetimezoneconverter.com)

  • Add to the linky the URL of your project’s blog post, instagram picture, or public facebook posting

  • Alternately, by 11am on Sunday, March 22 you may email a picture and description to {projectquilting at gmail dot com} with PROJECT QUILTING in the subject line. Yes – that deadline is one hour earlier because Kim needs some time to get it done.


Good luck, and remember to HAVE FUN! Don’t forget to post progress pictures because that’s part of the fun.
