There are no rules in this challenge.
We can use this fabric in any way we like, including a quilted project or a 3D object.
When I look at this fabric I see flowers!
I pulled out the fusible web and traced flower motifs.
I also added the lavendar, green and brown fabrics from my stash.
I plan to use this black batik as the background.
Our challenge is TOP SECRET until they are revealed in December 2010.
I will show you a bit of my work as I go along.....without revealing too much!
I have a little more than a fat quarter of challenge fabric left...
I have an idea for a second project.
We will have to wait and see what happens...

State Fair Zinnia Seedlings
In the kitchen window
I don't have much luck growing seedlings directly in the ground here in the coastal mountain range of Western Oregon.
I do better starting the seeds in the kitchen window for a few weeks.
I will be planting them in the ground by the first of June
The lilac bush by the back door is blooming and it smells yummy.
Somehow poor Suzy ended up in the house...
She came to the window to remind me to let her outside.

He also adores Suzy......unfortunately, she doesn't share his affection.
