I have been trying to think of something new and fun to do for a quilt challenge and my mind keeps going to The Wizard Of Oz for some reason!! I keep saying over and over, You're Not In Kansas Anymore Toto!! Too funny!!

So... this is going to be our next quilt challenge!

You will be creating a quilt that reflects the movie "The Wizard Of Oz"!!

It is going to be so interesting to see the creations that come out of this challenge! The opportunities to do so many unique and clever designs is endless!

Your quilt is your creation... NO rules as to how to create it... only that it HAS to be a quilt/wallhanging and it must be at least 36 inches square.

Photos of these will be due to me by December 28 and I will have them ready to show on the forum on New Years day, 2013. That gives you almost 3 whole months to make your quilt.

And as always... There will be PRIZES!!

Not started........ have an idea (that actually fits the theme this time).

Well I'm here

I see you.

Still working on mine.

I ordered fabric.............

Q., I'll be sure to remind her the date is the 28th. I'm sure she will make it, Unless she finds a better idea in Vegas at the Shop hop today.

Mine is close to being done. Just a tweak or two left. Jackie

Thanks for answering the roll call ladies... I hope you all finish.

I'm pulling for you girls. I can't wait to see them. It'll be like Christmas all over again.

I am back from Vegas and I will have mine done on time. Sue

6 days left....

I am watching with great anticipation!

My fabric is here; now to put my design idea into reality.

My deepest apologies, Thearica. I'm not going to finish my quilt. I just can't get my focus together to make it happen.

I want to design the top for the Sandy Hook memorial quilt, and I keep drifting away from the Yellow Brick Road to the design wall.

I feel bad about letting everyone down. I will do my best to get the next one done.

I don't think it is going to happen. Extra grand baby sitting has interfered with plan. I have an idea and watched the movie last week to make sure I remembered all the details. It might happen though-if I get off the computer. I do really like my idea.

Q. I completed my quilt and sent you 2 pics by PM. Will look forward to see what everyone made. Mine was very simple, but I liked it. Sue

Started on it and the idea was working but too much Christmasing has my carpal tunnel really acting up so sewing is not going to happen for a few days. Will not make deadline but will finish the project some time.

Sorry.
Karen

My tweaking did not happen, but I am going to email you my pictures later on tonight I hope. Otherwise during the day tomorrow. Like someone else I am babysitting grandkids, four of them under the age of ten. We have had fun, but no sewing got done. Jackie

Participants who finished are:

sister sue
wenonah
J Lu

Stay tuned for the winners announcement!!

So T are you not participating in the challenge? Well may the best quilt win. Good Luck girls.

Q, did you not do a quilt???? Sad to see that not everyone could finish thier quilt. Will be waiting for the posting of all the finished quilts. Sue

I always think I will have the time to do one but I never do for some reason... but If I had, I would not be in the showdown for prizes anyway...

I'm sure you would have won. I love your work.

Q. will you be showing the quilts which were done?? Sue
