Awww. You're making me blush.... You all are the awesome ones to want to try this experience with me!
I will be asking PatriceJ, the QB admin extraordinary, If it is possible to add our QB Flinging Flimsies name to the thread title. If it cannot be done, I will ask for a new thread for our official adventures and shut this one down.

The entire team is registered with Ricky Tims now! Yay! OK, Ricky.... We are waiting patiently for new from you now.
I just sent the note to PatriceJ asking for this thread to be closed so we can open a new one in the Challenge Board with our name in the title:
QB Flinging Flimsies - Mad Adders
If it is possible, Patrice will make it happen. In the meantime, we can start thinking about what we would like our project to ultimately be. I prefer a smallish wall hanging type project. My reasoning is that it may be easier to hide mistakes along the way as I learn new techniques for thinking about this slice and dice quilting pattern. I'm trying to figure out my theme (if any) and colors. I am not ordinarily a brown person but I passed a recently plowed field down here in south Texas that was glorious in its shade of brown with sorghum stalks poking up here and there that was really appealing. Reminded me of those pick up stick quilts. Slicing and dicing a jumble of browns could be really fun, right? No fear there -- hah!

And poof, Patrice the magician has changed the name on our thread to reflect our newfound status as named Mad Adders! Not just any Mad Adders, mind you. We are the ORIGINAL QUILTING BOARD SIX INAUGURAL YEAR OF RICKY TIMS' INTERNATIONAL MAD ADDERS! The crowd goes wild! Thank you, Patrice!

When you click on the Ricky Tims class be sure to review the supplies list. It gives the starting steps for the process.
None of the information in the supplies list is new. It is everything mentioned in his advertising for the Challenge. As we have been talking about it, it is time to create your starter piece. Once a month it will be passed to the next person on the list after your name. Make sure you have your supplies to do your work and pick out which fabrics you want to send with your starter piece. That fabric will help us tie the quilt together. We get to pick fabrics, too, but we can't do that until we get your starter piece in our greedy little hands. CREATE CREATE CREATE!!!

I’m trying not to get too far ahead of this. Ricky Tims’ site says he is going to be giving tips and guidance on our starter piece. I may start one, then scratch it after his first lecture 🤷🏻♀️. Still thinking about what would be the best tote to include. Do any of you ladies have a suggestion? Maybe just a tote bag to hold everything in. I don’t want to add weight to the shipping.
