2006 ART QUILT CHALLENGE BEGINS

After signing up for the challenge I will send you a picture from a magazine. The challenge is for you to design and make a quilt with this picture, you may use any material (not necessarily fabric) to complete this quilt. It may be of any size and does not need to be a fabric photo of the picture that you have been sent, but does need to have a resemblance to the picture you received. There is no start date as we will not be having partners to swap material with but the finish date will be the 1st August 2006. As usual at the end of the challenge we will post a poll with a prize for best polling entry If you are interested in stepping out of your comfort zone and challenging yourself and your sewing machine please forward your name, address and email addy to me.

Please feel free to post on this site progress pics, helpful hints, techniquesand inspiration, as some of us will need all the help we can get :)

I'm looking forward to the picture arriving. Any other time I have used a picture it has been of my own choosing so this will be a new challenge for me. I have to be honest it will be a real challenge if I hate the picture or it is a subject I don't warm to....I guess I am left with the 'abstract' option. It may not seem important but mine will be made to hang so I need to enjoy looking at it!
I hope first timers to this type of project realise that it is very time consuming and mind consuming...but you should enjoy it.
