    I'm good at coming up with ideas -- but not the best at taking charge. Here are some ideas:

    *decide on a block size (12" finished?)
    *interested members then start their design/stitching
    +some members might be interested in making an id block
    for personal use and to post on the board
    +other members might want their id block to become part
    of a larger quilt board block
    *members post their personal use id blocks, or they post
    "i'm in for the big one"
    *hopefullysomeone from each state or county within state will
    volunteer to organize how to gather blocks and complete
    each quilt
    +pm's can be sent with photos attached of finished blocks for
    the state/regions organizer as well as on the main board
    +pm's can be used to set up local quilt sessions for finishing
    *a year-completion goal would be reasonable.
    *quilts can compete in county fairs, state fairs, as well as the
    quilt board gathering.
    *after "displays" -- quilts can be auctioned at local charity
    events

    i was going to say, "that's my 2 cents." but -- it's more like "that's my 25 cents," because i got carried away.
    am hopeful that these thoughts prompt others to post their thoughts.
    judyjudyjudy (how am i going to think of an idea for THAT!!)
    I'll make one! If you start another thread post the link here so we can find it!
    dubib: thanks for offering to start a new thread. i don't know how to make one!!

    Sorry about the long quote, but Judy, krystyna, olebat, etc: Let's start another thread topic with this idea so we won't take away from this thread? I think we will get a whole lot more response with a new thread topic. What do you think?
    oops. i thought dubib was offering to start a new thread, but she might be offering to make a block. either way -- i don't know how to start a new thread. krystina -- do you want to start a new thread?

    My quilting id is just my initials from my first, and middle name with my last name tacked on behind it. Nothing fancy.

    A very late reply to this question. I was away for several days at a sporting clays shoot. Yes I shoot clays with the guys. I have achieved the rank of All-american. Kind of intimidating for some of them to handle. But i'm just out there to have fun with my DH. That is how I got my name Ane Okle.

    My grandaughter's name is Lily, and she has me wrapped around her little finger. Hence, Lilyized...

    My dearest friend (and fellow quilter) and I felt we needed pet names for each other. she is is Juliopolus and I am Paulswalia. Rather dignified in a classical sense, don't you think?

    When I hit 55 I wanted to do something fun and decided I would only carry red purses from then on. I've stuck with it but it's getting hard when I see all the fabulous purses in other colors.

    CindyLou is what some friends and my Dad called me. I won't comment on what my husband calls me;) Other than that, I am just plain Cindy!
    Krystyna, sounds like your Mother was a very forgiving, wonderful woman! Love the story!
