    Ya know, Talk Like A Pirate Day is in September... perhaps a nautical theme to commemorate that would be fun, as well. And National Chocolate Day is in October. I think there could be room for a second choice theme each month. :lol:

    Flora/Fauna
    Animals
    Seasons - Spring Summer Fall Winter
    Sports

    I would rather not have to do a theme. I would like to have an option to do it or not. No problem with having a theme but I don't want to have to do one every month. I would like to be able to choose when there is a theme between doing the theme or doing a traditional one. I may want to join the theme or not. That is probably too open ended but I don't want to be tied to a theme all the time.

    Hey All...I got the fabric for the quilt top washed/dried and ironed last night. Tonight I will start cutting (I hope!). Once I have the top pieced I'll be able to figure out what to back it with and see if I can find any embelishments. I don't have a lot of time to shop so we'll see. As it is, I only get about an hour each night to work on quilting/sewing. and that's if I'm not too tired! geesh you'd think i was older than 33!! these 2 kids wear me out. anyway I finally got all my daughter's fabric cut for her princess quilt and arranged. I'm working on 2 projects at once. that's rough for a newbie with little time on her hands.....LOL!

    While the themes are great....I agree with Rhonda (well, unless ya'll want to send all the birthday quilts to me :wink: )...I'd like to be able to choose whether to do the theme or not. Sometimes I'd like to...sometimes I wouldn't. Sometimes I'd just like to try out some technique that I otherwise wouldn't .

    February will probably be theme-less, but if we do ever have a theme it will be optional. And always feel free to create your own themes for any month!
