Modern Mystery Block of the Month
As announced last month, we are doing a new monthly challenge. Last month, attendees received directions at the guild meeting for a block with modern elements. Bring the completed block with you this month to be entered to win a prize. Everyone who finishes their block this month is invited to put them on the front design wall so we can see all the fun variations. If you need directions for the block, copies are available at the front register at Stitched with Love. Tag your finished block from May on Instagram with the guild tag: #mckmqg and #modernmysterybom
