Ooh, that's a good way to do it. Do you remember any of the skills?

Reverse applique -
Triangle in a square units - some people find them difficult to do (Doreen Speckman called them Peaky and Spike)

I like the idea of having two options per round
Will there be a target size for the finished item - or will it be however big the person wants it to be?

There are several methods of applique around - you might consider putting all the applique options in one bag.

This is a good topic. I thought of using color skill, make a monochromatic or only two colors as an example.
