Joyce Hughes, an award-winning, self-taught quilter, fiber artist and author, started us off for 2021. Her first book, Creating Art Quilts with Panels, is a topic that opens us up to the possibilities of panels. And with her workshop on Jan 30, she’s a great lead-in to our first challenge of the year  

Using any fabric panel for your main theme, create a quilt, some placemats, a table runner, tote bag . . . basically anything you want with your panel.  

• You must use the majority of the panel.
