We have put together a fun guild challenge using black and white (and grey) fabrics. You also have the option to add in one color to your chosen black and white fabrics. Entries are due at the August guild Zoom meeting, which will be held on Sunday, August 9th. Your entry does not need to be quilted or finished in order to enter. All those that share their submissions will automatically be entered to win a prize. For more details about the challenge, check out the challenge handout.
