Mine is going to funky plaid hand appliqued birds, I think, so far the pattern I'd most like to play with. Will post a picture of the pattern a bit later.
I may also do some butterflies in autumn colors which are also hand appliqued. I don't do much applique so I would be practicing it on these two choices. Something different for me.
I found a table runner swap run by Carolinepaj, who also does this swap . It is similar, no restrictions except for a theme like autumn as an example. Free to make what you want in three months. I am going to play in both swaps. My horizons are expanding!
