know i'm always pushing for 'odd' themes, but how about any shape but square (or rectangular)? we could call it out -of-the-box picnic. or something musical, like A tune for June. or "summertime and the living is easy". except some of our members are having winter. other ideas?
also, does anyone here do watercolor quilts? i bought a book, but i would love an experienced partner., tia, nanci

Well, I am 99% finished with my quilt and I am so so excited by it! Thank you Krystyna for the theme this month! It is soooooo far from my norm, we are talking on another planet from my comfort zone! But I had sooooo much fun! I am brimming with ideas of things I want to try.. I will not be a purely traditional quilter after this one! Thanks for the nudge to step outside my bounds
I would love to see a swap with 30s fabrics as the theme. I am new to the swap, so I apologize if this was a recent theme ....I know that it is a totally traditional theme, when I just raved about being non-traditional, LOL. But I just think they are so incredibly pretty and I am a sucker for pretty

I agree that I too stepped out of my comfort zone and this was awesome!!! LOVE the crazy quilting...AND I too would love to do 30's fabric, especially over the summer...it just seems appropriate in summer for some reason

I am a busy little sewer & am working like crazy, on my crazy doll quilt top!! I am also stepping out of the norm & am adding some ribbon embroidery to it. Oh, I hope it turns out pretty!! I am sure my partner will be surprised!! At least I hope sooooooo.

I am so happy to hear that this is pushing your boundaries a little bit. There are lots of wonderful ideas popping around. I'll see what else has been posted on the group discussion area. I'm sure it will be fun!
