2026 Presidential Challenge:  Bridging Our Differences

“Bridging Our Differences” invites quilters to explore symbolism, color theory, and literal “connections.” The goal is to create a visual representation of unity, empathy, or the act of connecting contrasting elements through textile art.

For this challenge, you are free to choose any color palette. However, every quilt must incorporate a visible “Bridge Fabric.” This must be a true black and white print (that is, absolutely no gray or any other color), serving as the neutral foundation that connects your other chosen fabrics (which may contain any color desired).
