We are excited to announce our first edition of our color block challenge Block of the Month, featuring some of the most talented ambassadors and guest designers from around the world. Our challenge was to create an original quilt block using at least four of the seven fabrics provided, with a finished size of 12 inches.

This month, we are thrilled to have Jackie Marks as our featured designer. Jackie is a talented  quilter and an expert in sewing, and you can find her on social media @heartsonmyfeet. Jackie's block is a bold and geometric design that is sure to make a statement in any quilt.

To participate in our challenge, simply follow the cut list provided by Jackie and create your block. You can use any combination of the fabrics, and you are free to add your own twist to the block. When you have finished your block, be sure to share it on social media using the hashtag #colorblockchallenge and tag us @gracecompany.

We can't wait to see what our talented quilters come up with this month, and we look forward to sharing their creations with the world. So grab your fabrics, power up your sewing machine, and get ready to create something amazing!
