I took part in the 9 Patch Project and loved it. Used up a lot of my existing stash.

The most recent challenge was to make a quilt no larger than 20" using scraps from a bag someone brought to the meeting. :roll:
That sounds like fun but I can't think of any colors that have my initials !! Did anyone have trouble with it??
S = scarlet
M = magenta / mauve,
anymore??
You need another initial with the three colors. Like mine would be ECR - ecru, cerulean and rose. It matches - as would scarlet and mauve - gotta have another initial there> That sounds like a fun one. I like that!!! Edie

At our group, we each picked out three paint chips out of a paper bag. Then we were supposed to makesomething with thesethree fabrics. This was just before we went to Paducah last year. That was my challenge to find these three colors. I managed to find them, but I had to use my imagination to put them together. One other group had us to use our initials and make something with them. Mine are amw, so I used aqua, mauve, and white. Don't remember what I made.
