    Give a size of a square...say 12" x 12"

    A time limit...say, 1 month to finish and post or mail away

    just some ideas... firm it up and I wouldn't mind joining in!

    Sounds like big fun! I am in the middle of a project--trying to fix something that I boo-booed--but will do this soon. I think it would be the most fun to do with a group--kind of like those Christmas gifts where you pick the one you want and pass on the one you don't

    Oh Judie, this sounds like fun! I like to play too. I'd like you to pick a color for me, if you don't mind, as I do really love all colors, and it'll be fun to see what you pick for me.

    Maybe if you can get Patrice's approval (senior moderator), we can start a thread in the Blocks of Month/Week section and do a quilt-along, sharing ideas, progress and what not. What do you think?

    Where is the brand of paint you are using sold?

    I just thought of another question. Lets say I got purples, would we be allowed to use a purple print, such as say a purple background with red flowers? Or does it have to be only purple?

    as long as the basic colors match any or all on your cards...so purple with a red print would work, if it goes with the other colors on you card...get it?

    here's a link to a list of all the colors. On my computer, I have to click them to See (if you Right-Click and select Open In New Tab , you won't have to leave the page with the list).

    Don't know how close the colors are True to the actual paint chip, but still it gives an idea.

    I am Loving my colors, btw! :thumbup:

    Thanks for posting the link sewTinker :P I was going to search and see which colors I got as it would be a while before I get to Lowes. How cool! I love both of my colors, never thought about putting them together though, I see a fabric shopping trip in my near future :mrgreen: Love it! Thanks for getting this started, Judi.
