    I'd be happy to work on peoples self portraits and more unique creations as long as they are happy to have me PM about suggestions if I get really stuck....

    Admittedly I could get stuck for inspiration on any centre and need to PM the owner.
    you can PM me anytime or even post to the threads. i have every intention of discussing the creative process when i'm stuck. i enjoy input from others and prefer not to work in a vacuum.

    I have a half completed center but I am just not happy with it...ah, tomorrow should be a better day................
    Julie, I think we all have our moments wondering what to do, but I have to say how much I love your Avatar, that would make a fabulous quilt and I can just see the borders too.

    I like your avatar, what about that? Or something similar based on ...wrought iron? ...celtic designs?...some other 'ethnic' culture?
    Thanks. My avatar is one of many blocks for another quilt--would hate to remake it. I "purchased" one of my kindergartener's artworks as a quilt block. It's smaller than the requirements so I'd have to add an initial border to get it to 12.5 x 12.5. It's a 6 year olds version of his "self-portrait"--would this be too personal to submit to a round robin? Opinions?
    Well I think it would be fabulous to have something different, like Klue´s, I personally love a challenge and you could certainly make it even larger if you wanted a queen size quilt by adding a border yourself first, at the moment the size would probably end up as a single bedsize quilt. Does that help?

    the center should be 24 inches finished or less. it doesn't have to be a square though a rectangle is fine.

    my centers will be around 20 x 24 inches

    Please just take a moment to check again on Page 1 of this Topic, Sizes are 12" x 12" or 24" x 24"
    dependant on what size quilt you want. Okay.
