2027 QuiltCon Fabric Challenge
The QuiltCon 2027 Featured Speaker, Steph Skardal, has selected the fabric challenge palette from a brand new line of solids from Windham Fabrics, Handloom by Tara Faughnan. These wovens shift with the light and are full of subtle textures in rich, layered colors.
QuiltCon challenge fabric is available in yard bundles and/or as individual yardage. Preorder your bundle today and as soon as the bolts arrive we will ship your handloom!
Rules from the MQG: Quilters may use from 3 to 6 colors in the palette to create their quilt. Any other fabric, neutrals, etc. may not be used on the quilt top or binding. Makers may use any fabric of their choice for the quilt backing. Maximum quilt size is 90” per side. This year's colors are:
* 54870-11 Persimmon
* 54870-6 Juicy
* 54870-27 Peacock
* 54870-58 Marshmallow
