It also provides examples of how color values make a hug difference!
This past year we did a pizza box swap with someone adding a block to someones pizza box according to the owners specifications. For example i wanted 12" black and white blocks. I received my filled box last week and will make the top using these blocks with the addition of sashing, cornerstones, border, etc. At the November meeting we will reveal our tops or quilts.
Now, I need ideas foe next year's project. Suggestions?
Did everyone enjoy this year's challenge? Perhaps change the rules a bit and go the same route again. Reguire that each block be 4 by 4 pieces or maybe each be tiny calico prints or maybe each be red/white/blue. Same general guidelines but a bit different on the specifics.
