Strip piecers fabric challenge


(click on pix to enlarge)
Since September, my quild (The Strip Piecers) has been working quietly on a challenge. Each of us put a metre of fabric in a box with our name, and everyone made a 12.5 inch block from it over the last eight months. We've been oohing and ahhing over other people's boxes, but couldn't peek into our own boxes during the process. Yesterday was the big reveal. I've been taking photos of the ones I made all along, but haven't posted my blocks because some Strip Piecers read my blog. I've got pictures of all the quilts laid out, but until I get a chance to upload them, here's something to look at. Yes, I know there's a repeat. I forgot to take a picture of one of them, so the wonky stars are in twice.We each received eight blocks, and they're all really fun and really different.

That was a fun evening! Mine will be such a dramatic quilt. I love all my blocks, and I think everyone else's turned out great too! I'll post pics on my blog soon too.

What a great idea! Kind of like a round robin, but not... Love it! 8-)
