April had a completely different feeling… and you really went for it.
With the Coastal Sunset palette by Bookends Quilting, this month’s challenge was all about exploring mood, depth and those rich, earthy tones inspired by the coast. And honestly, the result has been incredible.
We received 297 entries for the giveaway, and the variety has been amazing. Some designs were bold and dramatic, others much softer and more subtle, but all of them captured something special from the palette. It’s always surprising to see how the same colors can lead to so many different quilt interpretations.
All the mock-ups are truly impressive.
And now, it’s time to announce the winner:
