This years quilt guild challenge… FQ,Shape, Color

I am a member of the Pins and PIne Needles Quilt Guild based out of Whitecourt  Alberta and surrounding area.  This years Quilt guild challenge we were given a Fat Quarter, A shape, and a color we are to make a child size quilt to display at our 2018 Quilt show then donate to it the local women’s shelter.
