Conchalea, this is a wonderful idea. I've ridden for about 15 years but not much lately. This would be an enjoyable "project" for me. I can start in my own county. :) Hope you enjoy your ride.

I plan to put about 1500 miles on my bike & get pictures of my bike in front of more county courthouses. Texas has 254 counties, each with a courthouse. So far I have 154, so 100 to go!....

Jclinganrey, thanks so much for posting this challenge. I've just run across this today and while I don't have enough strings right now, I'm going to keep this in mind for the future. AngelinaNR, thanks for a wonderful tutorial.

I have also been working on mine. Have about 157 made. Ran out of black so picked up more today think I need to make 59 more to make a twin size. But my bucket is still running over with strings maybe a full size or king ....probably the largest so would go is a full as there are a lot of seams and will be heavy. But will probably stop at a twin. As Bonnie Hunters new strong quilt book will be out on December. Still working on Talking Turkey.

So good to hear from you, Janice. Not so much a challenge as a quilt along. No timeframe, no deadlines, etc. I'm doing mine as a leader & ender project and am clicking along. Will also be doing a variation with my Kaffee Fassett fabrics. |
