2023 December Monthly Color Challenge

 I'm not sure how it happened, but we have reached the end of the 2023 Monthly Color Challenge!




I'm loving the look of the December block. It's another easy one, but also has a fun finish.

This month our classic car color is orange.




As the years have gone by, some more quickly than others, I have grown to love orange more and more.




Our fabrics this year are from Benartex's basic line, Cotton Shot. Dark orange is "orange" and the light is "marmalade."




This year we are doing things differently with the bloggers. There will be just one quilter a month that will be featured. September's blogger is Sandra.  I encourage you to grab your favorite cold (or hot if it's cold where you live) drink and stay awhile to check out what she's working on.



Ready for the block? Here it is! I love the simple pinwheel. This one almost looks like a peppermint candy. Make sure to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the instructions page for the link to the How To Video.



Join the Quilt and Learn with Patterns By Jen Facebook group (make sure to answer the questions so I know you are a real person 😉) where you will get a lot of support and questions answered! If you aren't on Facebook you can also follow Patterns By Jen on Instagram. Use #2023MonthlyColorChallenge when sharing so I can be sure to see your block.


I can't wait to see all of the orange flood my world this month!

Ready to get the pattern? Go to Payhip and download it now! The block is free for the month of December! Each set of instructions includes a "How To" video.

It's too late to receive the 2023 Monthly Color Challenge block instructions through email, but you can still sign up to have the 2024 Monthly Color Challenge blocks (and the layout!) sent directly to your email. Sign up HERE.

Let's make something Extraordinary!
