MPS Creative Challenge Times Twelve
September 2011-September 2013
Current theme due at the March General Meeting is: TREASURE
We were all inspired by an MPS founding member, Terry Grant and fellow artists involved in the Twelve by Twelve Collaborative Art Quilt Project. With Terry's blessings we designed an MPS version which we are calling "Creative Challenge Times Twelve". Our fearless leaders are Betsy Sayre and Joyce Grieszler and this effort will span two years from September 2011- September 2013.
There are only a few rules for members to follow:
- Projects can be no larger than 60" total around the outside edge(s). (Note we didn't specify how many edges because that is up to you. Are you thinking of a circle, four sides, or five, or...?
- Projects to be made mostly of fabric with embellishments and unusual materials encouraged.
- Each piece to be quilted in some form; binding is optional.
- Themes will be announced one project at a time and will be due at appropriate guild meetings in September, November, January, March, May and June.
- With your permission, we'll post pictures here on our website and a challenge blog is being created where members are invited to send pictures and short narratives.
- A core group of members have committed to complete all 13 quilts. Other members may join at will - one project at a time or all of the projects.
