I want those beach chairs done yesterday. I tried drawing them five times the other day. think another five times and they will be passible enough to cut out. too bad I just didn't find an applique chair in the right size to put on or a fabric with say 8" lounge chairs lol like that is going to happen! so.. gulp its me and those nemesis chairs. will post a picture after I finish this next round.

I am in heaven over what you guys have done. WOW is all I can say. double wow. yup. The variety and CREATIVITY is amazing. You can start in any time people. if you are not started yet its ok. I have four rounds to do for the row robin part. one for top, bottom and two sides. all will be different. so that is another four months After I finish the round with the beach scene. its going to be a long time lol but it makes me happy so that is worth the row a month! you can jump on in! we will be here. bet you some will be on their second or third try before I finish my first! and that's ok. not all can be champion quilters! but we can sure try! I cant wait to see what your doing and please share. thank you so much for sharing past quilts. it is very inspiring. also.. I need a few ideas for a round of cocktails and one of tropical flowers.. so if you have done one show us! (ok show me!)
I am sure you are all done by now, but maybe for next time. You said you couldn't find a chair to applique on, so how about finding a good chair you like the picture of, and saving it to your computer, then print it off on material, and use that to applique? Just wondering if that is possible?
