Here are a couple samples to show you.  If we get 12 people to do this then we will all make the same block.  We can do any colors we want or we could pick out the colors.
It doesn't have to be any of these I just wanted to show you some.  AND don't think you couldn't do any of these, they are all real simple.

If you go to page two on this one and check out Rhonda's and Patrica's they are beautiful.    This would make a great spring quilt.    hint hint.

Those blocks look like they're right up my alley.  I will need til March though, I just got two orders for commissioned knitting projects! My first 2 orders in as many days.  Fun times.  I like to quilt on days I don't have the knitting impulse though, it usually gets me right back on track.

I have 2 wonderful sons, 3 ducks (2 Anconas & 1 Buff), 4 laying hens, a Holland Lop bunny, and a big scaredy cat.  I am a Chef, Baker, Bluegrass "Musician" (I know, you can't do both) and artisan.

The one we are in right now we have to have turned in by Feb. 1 looks like, it's with Cindi. We could do the Basket weave but the other one is too hard for my students. I'll keep an eye on here and let you know if we can take part, it will depend on the time frame and the pattern.

If you aren't living for something, you are dying for nothing.

My lady be wary and heed to the lines of this verse: To let a fool kiss you is stupid, to let a kiss fool you is worse.
