    $30 is not bad spread out over the course of a few months. You guys may have talked me into it! I don't think that I can match you guys on talent, but I would definitely try to make something great.

    I am sure you would have a great time. We all worry that what we do will match the "talent" of the others. Trust me, these gals on the board accept all levels and just enjoy the adventure.

    I can't speak for everyone else, but I feel like many of us are "winging it" more often than not. I know that I am. I can't ever say that what I "see" happening and what actually happens match. It's often just a lucky coincidence that what I "thought" might work and what "actually" works are kind of similar. For Lana's center, it took me 3 tries to make it come out in a way that I was happy enough to pass on to the next person. And I think we've all kind of come to expect that some centers are easier to make a plan for than others - and we ask for ideas and suggestions. Often.

    oh heck yes making a center is the EASY part. I always dread being good enough and will I embarrass myself if I send something on that is not great.. and oh my god! people are seeing your work from the backside too!! help!lol its a learning experience. If you can make an accurate block then you can do a round robin. lots of math is what I find measuring things and then oh darn I am off.. 1/2 an inch now what??? we get creative oh yes yes we do. I think these are fun and know that others will have fun in them too. My bugger is shorter time frame. six week turn around is more than enough time even in a busy life to do a round. but that is just me. 3 months is beyond unnecessary. you then just put it over there.. and forget about it. I know we are all busy but.. that is an awful lot of time for a round that takes from a few hours to a weekend to do. oh shut up brat.. your going to get whomped AGAIN. I am sure sick of being whomped should learn to shut up faster lol

    Something I just noticed: Brat, how did you end up with Lestrong's top before me? and now you are sending to Jaba.

    MH is to send to Jaba - Jaba ships to me and I ship to you.
    I still have Nexxus's top which I got from Jaba.
