Challenge Quilts 2006 challenge has very few rules – so get your imagination in high gear! Beginning at the March 2006 night meeting, each member will have the chance to draw for their inspiration, which will be a piece of wrapping paper. Using the design elements of that piece (no trading, please), you can create your quilt of any size, using any technique. The “design elements” could be the colors, the pattern, the designs or images on the paper – anything that you see when you look at it. Donations of wrapping paper (8" square at least) are welcome! Challenge quilts are due at the September 2006 night meeting. And remember it’s supposed to be a challenge!
