April 2021 Challenge

Welcome to the April Challenge! Every month there will be a new challenge and you’ll have all month to get your entries in. This month we’re going to have TWO challenges. You can enter one or both but can’t submit the same entry twice. One randomly chosen winner for each challenge will be awarded a $50 gift certificate for Sew Sweetness and be announced in the next month’s newsletter.

Challenge A

We’re going to start easy – The first Minikins 3 challenge is to make the Connemara pouch! With only a few pieces to cut out, you’ll be sewing up a storm in no time flat!

Challenge B

A common post in the Facebook group is about the stress of choosing a patterned fabric and then choosing coordinating fabric! Working with solids takes all that away and you can still make a beautiful final project – like Sara’s Easter basket! Your challenge this month is NOT to use patterned fabric! Which Sew Sweetness pattern will you make only using quilting solids/solid fabric? You can use one color or multiple colors! Try weaving, patchwork or leave it plain and simple – it’s up to you!

So choose your Sew Sweetness pattern and when you’ve finished, upload your photo below. One entry per person per challenge (Challenge A or Challenge B) and no reposting from previous months please! If you have trouble uploading, please email your picture to [email protected] and I’ll happily help you.

Please enter your own photo in the linky tool below so your fellow sewists can see your beautiful work!

Random winner will be chosen after April 30, 2021 out of all entries received. The winners for April were #75 Marilyn and #105 Sharon
