OFFICIAL SIGN-UP -- GET IT DONE IN 2005 CHALLENGE
My previous post was to see if there was sufficient interest... clearly there is! So here goes! ( I will repost this a couple more times to be sure everyone gets a chance to see it and sign up!)
Deadline for entry: February 15 The challenge is simple: Identify a project (or projects) that you want to complete before December 31, 2005. All entered quilts must measure at least 120 inches in perimeter. Done means: pieced, quilted, bound and LABELED!!! Hopefully -- once completed, you can send me a picture (either hard copy via snail mail) or a digital image. I will create a special webpage and post the pictures so that all can see what we have been working on. Here is the deal: Enter as many projects as you wish BUT... for each one you enter, if you don't finish, you will owe the "challenge" a FQ. At the end of the year, I will create a roster of who met the challenge and who fell short. For each project you entered AND completed, I will enter your name in the FQ POT -- which will be full of the FQ's that those who fail to finish a project and owe one FQ for each uncompleted project. Then we will draw a name(or names -- depending on how many we end up with) to receive the FQ's. A lucky quilter (or 2 or 3) will start receiving squishies in the mail soon thereafter!!! Projects must be either new or unfinished -- the one you finished last week does NOT count! So -- Please send the following information to me via email (grovesfam at comcast dot net) 1) youf complete name 2) snail mail address and for each project you wish to enter: 3) Name (just to identify it -- doesn't have to be finished name - Janie's quilt or Sam's wallhanging) 4) Anticipated Size (lap, twin, king... or 35 x 50 -- just a general idea) 5) Is it a completely new project you've wanted to do but never started... or a UFO 6) Anything else you wish to share about this project. After February 15 -- I will prepare a master list of all submitted projects and share it with all of you. Then as each of you complete a project (and hopefully send me a picture) I will share that as well -- and post on a webpage(not your snail addy) -- so we can motivitate and congratulate each other as the year goes on! That's it! So send me the details... please ... IN YOUR EMAIL TO ME... put this in the Subject Line: GET IT DONE IN 2005 -- so I can be sure and not miss it -- or have it accidentally tossed as spam. Thanks... I look forward to seeing what everyone hopes to accomplish this year! Hopefully we will have LOTS and LOTS of happy dancing! Kate in Michigan |

I hope you get a lot of people interested in your challenge. I will enjoy
the future posts of progress. Please dont use html in your posts. It helps keep usenet from using up more space at the isp, makes it kinder to those who dont use newsgroup readers who dont handle html *it looks like gibberish to them* and its standard usenet netiquette.
