A good friend gave me a 1 yard piece of fabric for Christmas. She also bought a yard for herself and another friend. And she challanged us to make something with it using only 3 other fabrics. An original design or modification to make it an Original.
That is how she worded it but being quilters, the other friend and myself thought "quilting challenge". I did say I wouldn't be able to sandwich and finish a quilt and I was told a quilt top would be good.
Well, only 3 other fabrics was quite a challange for me. I love mixing fabrics. But I did it - and mine is done. And I'd love to post a picture.... but.... someone might see it before the official unveiling of the "Friendly Fabric Challenge" this coming Saturday.
The friend who's idea this was is currently at her computer next to her sewing machine putting finishing touches on a quilt top. I keep getting instant messages as each border is being put on.
The other friend, who prides herself on being done the quickest, has sandwiched it, envelope-style finished it and has tied it.
My top is done also, and I did do something different with it... but I can't tell you know. I must keep the surprise!!
After Saturday I will post pics. Promise.
