Are you an Art quilter at all? Two things came to my mind: a city scape on a shoreline with the water and edges of the buildings "silvered" in moonlight with silver lighted windows in some of the buildings or a woods scene with some type of water, snow or aspen trees silvered in moonlight.

I immediately thought "by the light of the silvery moon"

Google moon quilts, there were quilte a few ideas, one was a large moon with a silhoutte of a branch and a bird on it.

I call my local quild "bricks and mortar" to distinguish it from my online guild. Unfortunately our meetings are held in an undistinguished church hall in an undistinguished building.

What about 25 in some way. Either the number itself or a block with 25 pieces in the silver color?

Wow!! So many good ideas! I had forgotten "light of the silvery moon" and the cityscape has lots of possibilities even though I've not yet attempted an "art" quilt. On the other hand I also like the black and silver lame idea..... Oh the embarrassment of riches. I knew I could count on you guys to set my creative juices flowing.

Thanks! Diana

I like that idea too!! It's a good thing I have until next September to finish this.
