2026 Guild Challenge

June Challenge Message from Your Challenge Cheerleaders!

Hello quilters!

Our Sewcialites 3 challenge blocks are demonstrated every Friday morning at 9 a.m. by Kimberly Jolly on YouTube. Viewing may be done anytime you like: at your leisure. There is no demo or block on the 4th of July weekend.

The photo shows Janice C sharing her Sewcialites quilt with our guild last month. Janice did not complete all of the blocks, and that is okay. Janice’s quilt is wonderful! Thanks Janice!

If you have not participated in this challenge, please try making a few blocks and make a table runner. The last block will be introduced on August 14. Then we will make our quilts to share in November.

*****For easy access to the block patterns, go to ucquilts.com.

Please bring any or all block numbers 15, 16, 17, and 18 to share during our June 23rd meeting.

God bless and happy quilting!
