I am currently working on a poppy quilt that relates to the Flanders field and Veterens. If I had a projector it would have been soooooo spectacular! I am making this poppy quilt to donate to a VFW post in MI . The city refused to allow an old gent ,a WW2 VET to stand on the spot he had for many many years on the day the vets hand out poppies for donations thier proceeds decreased buy a couple thousand due to this.They clamed saftey yet let the town fire dept stand in the same spot a few months later to raise money..... Well I am getting carried away I do tend to get pasionate .....

I so have to raise some money for a projector!
I got a projector at Christmas time, one of those that has the little discs that you can project pictures onto the side of your house. I used the clear plastic sheets and shrunk a design for my kids to paint on the wall, you then cut the little circle out put it in and depending on how far a way the projector is depends on the size you can enlarge to. It works pretty good and I think I paid $10.00 for it. A little more work but a pretty cheap alternative.
