Before I get to the 2008 challenge, I am including a picture of me working on my granddaughter's quilt. I'm almost finished!!!
Monday night I went to my quilt guild meeting - the first one of the new year. We have all new officers now (I'm not one of them this time - Woo Hoo!). Our new president gave us a challenge. The picture below has a paint chip card with three shades of blue that I will need to incorporate in the item that I will make. Everyone got a different color card. With it are some of the latest fabrics that I have bought and one of them has the two darker colors in it! That was lucky because I bought that piece before I got the challenge! I don't have any idea yet what I will do. It has to be at least 25" x 25". Any suggestions? I don't really have any plans for the other fabric, although I am thinking about making a double nine patch quilt with light colored fabrics and a variety of colors for the small nine patches.
This is a shelf of little treasures that I have hanging in my sewing room. Do you like the little chickens? Whenever I see these at a cheap price, I buy them. My grandma gave me one when I was a girl (it is in my china cabinet).

I collect chickens.....not the lives ones. I have some of the glass chickens on the nest/basket.
