For me it would be pink 1930's strips - I have a load of them cut up to make a mini log cabin quilt but never seem to get to it - other things take my fancy and before I know it, years have passed. So, in the interest of progressing a WIP, I would challenge you to pink 1930's...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-54556991015193292362010-09-16T11:59:12.321-05:002010-09-16T11:59:12.321-05:00I love the quilting on the zig-zag quilt!

It would probably end up looking similar to a Geeze Wiz quilt, but even a little more out of control. In order to challenge you, my dear, it has to be out of control.

Six month's worth because that is how long I have been quilting. You wouldn't think I would have many scraps because of the short time I've been quilting, but you would be wrong, very very wrong. I also would love to see your handy work up close.

I am trying to start a baby quilt and needed some inspiration, so last night I googled 'filmstrip quilt' and found your blog again. Needless to say I am now inspired - more like obsessed - and have many projects added to my list. (Baby quilt comes first, baby quilt comes first!)<br /><br />I was reading through the archives and found your post about favorite ice cream. Coffee with brownie is my go-to at Cold Stone Creamery. Yum! I think I need some ice cream now! I love small coincidences like that. <br /><br />Anyway, even though it wasn't my original reason for wanting to comment, a mini scrap quilt would be awesome!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04301393452228288327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-4903343363470532992010-09-09T16:59:40.724-05:002010-09-09T16:59:40.724-05:00Love the mini quilt design you came up with!

I love the historical background of civil war fabrics and have made many quilts from patterns in that era. It would be neat to see a different spin on a quilt design using civil war scraps...maybe a more modern twist?!? Thanks for the opportunity!
