A New Challenge

I received my January issue of Down Under Quilts today and was interested to see that the theme for the 2008 Calendar Competition is my secret garden. Entries close on Friday 27 April 2007 so that gives me four clear months (ha!) to synthesise my design ideas and turn them into a quilt, or two. I find the 100cm x 100cm size requirement is a comfortable scale to work with, but this doesn't stop cquilt from having its own ideas. Both fishnet and hot cross blocks were started as possible entries into the 2007 DUQ calendar competition (theme - crossroads) so anything can happen!
