Oh, what about a little cafe scene, with embroidered wire chairs and a striped awning?

or you can get half ripped and then make the block :)

I would be glad to make a block and send with $5. I will go with what you all decide, but it would be nice to see it placed in a museum. Definitely put into a quilt though. :thumbup:

So what's it gonna be 12" or 14"? Post when it is final, to send the block to the quilter or who ever and the final date.

Will a picture of it printed on a fabric sheet work? Maybe post some crazy patch or triangles, etc. bordering it. Unless you're really gifted and cut the designs out and place in order. Alot of work for that!!!! ;-)
