Wow, what a great idea. Count me in - I've got over 100 pounds to get this change of life accomplished. Sounds like disappearing 9 patch is a great idea but I may do a game board quilt. The idea of a quilt reminds me of the "Game of Life" that I used to play as a child (not "Candyland"!!). There is probably some kind of game board type of quilt out there that I could work my way through with sufficient pieces (otherwise I'll be doing a 2" square to keep the size down!).
