Most art quilters love color. Some of us need color, especially during cold winter months and rainy seasons. And who hasn’t used color is some form to cover up a mistake in a project or create a new opportunity? Sometimes we use an infusion of color to shake us out of a rut or established routine.

We were enchanted by the response we had to this challenge and impressed—as always—with our readers’ work! Thank you for your continued submissions to our Reader Challenges—your work brightens our inbox and expands our artistic minds.
