Rules:
1. You must only use Solid Fabrics or fabrics that read as a solid. Examples are Solid Color Batiks, Hand Dyes, Tonals and Micro Patterns: subtle prints that appear solid from far away.
2. The piece must have a functional purpose, such as a Pot Holder, Table Runner, Christmas Stocking, Tree Skirt, Totebag, etc.
3. There is no size restriction on this Challenge.
4. Piece should follow values of Modern quilting (see About page for definition of Modern Quilting)
Challenge will be due at the November 20, 2012 meeting.
Here are samples of what everyone made:
I'm not sure how to post to a blog, so I am trying this "Comment" section. Rosanne recommended "The Modern Quilting Bee Block Party" by Alissa Haight Carlton & Kristen Lejnieks at the Ostober meeting. I read through it. The idea is intriguing and seems much easier than block exchanges where everything has to exactly match. Take a look at the book. See what you think. Maybe we can discuss it at the November meeting and get started on a block exchange in January, if there is enough interest. Cathi PS Not sure what that Comment as: Select Profile box is for. I'm afraid to make a choice, so just clicking "publish." Maybe part of a meeting should be how to use a blog?!?!? Had to make a choice. Picked "Anonymous."
