For this challenge we took inspiration from the song that was the number one on the day we were born. The project could be whatever we wanted as long as it fell under the category "Quilting/Needlework".

It could be any size, any materials in any ammount and in depicted in any way we chose.

Now it's up to you to vote for your favorite! Everyone did such a great job - it's going to be difficult - but what's new, right???

• • • Great Job Ladies! You made it tough again, but I did manage to pick one
(and it wasn't mine this time ).

Thanks Lori, these have been fun. Just hope I'll have time for the next one.

Help, how long do we have to decide??? They area all great creative projects. Thanks for sharing your talent-- It will be hard to choose. Pat

Rats. I meant to put that in the post...

Voting Ends at Midnight on August 30, 2013.

Why does it always have to be so difficult to pick just one!! Great job ladies!!

The projects all look great. Each one of you put a tremendous thought into your project and now we get to choose which one we like the best. Lots of luck with that!!!. I like them all. Will have to think about this before I select one. Sue

Very interesting projects ladies! I love the creativity of this group! A super-duper virtual quilt guild!

Another wonderful show ladies!
But I did manage to pick just one!
Sew FUN!!!

These are all so wonderful. Glad to have the write up to each one, to understand the symbolism and choices, and techniques too. Amazing and thoughtful, and great workmanship as well. Attention to detail. Gotta think on this awhile. Only one?

Congrats, everyone!! Each project is unique and beautiful! I also had a difficult time deciding on a favorite, as they all are. And, even after looking at the inspiration, I'm still clueless about what I would have done with my song

Great Job everyone!!! I voted, tough choice. Congratulations to the finishers.

I voted but the choice was difficult. Thanks to all who did participate. All the projects were great. Sue

Don't forget to vote for your favorite.

wow...that was great fun. Good challenge! I have NO idea what I would have done with my song. Super effort on everyone's part!!!

• • • Only 30 votes in. Doesn't look like I'm going to win this time around.

Lets see some more votes!! We need lots, lol

I haven't voted yet, even tho I've been admiring all the projects...I'm thinking.

I'm sure low voter turnout so far is due to indecision, not lack of interest.

Come on ladies, lets get those votes in.

Congratulations to Alexemmarose on winning the Project Quilting/Needlework Challenge #4 - Your Song! You win all our praise and $10 which I will try to get into today's mail

All the entries were wonderful and I love how you interpreted "your song". Congratulations to everyone

Congratulations to all who finished!!! Great work. Special congratulations to Alexemmarose, you are on a creative wave girl!!!!

Congratulations to ALL the quilters who finished their projects! Sometimes getting these things finished is truly half the battle! I want to thank Lori/Gonsewin for another great challenge...you do have some creative things up your sleeve! I tried to guess who stitched which pieces and must say, I only got a couple right! You girls...changing things up on me!

Now, I want to thank you all SO much for your wonderful votes of confidence! OMG! I have had a stressful couple of years and I guess with the stress somewhat calmer now I am putting my energy into my creations. They were really all so creative and fun! And what a challenge! Our birth day song? Way to go everyone!

What a thrill, I have to admit, to see the votes being put to my piece. Thank you so much.

Now onward...to our next challenge!

• • • CONGRATULATIONS Colleen! I didn't recognize your song, but when you mentioned Moulin Rouge, your little leg sticking out of all those ruffles was absolutely perfect.

Wasn't that exciting to watch as the numbers climb? I couldn't believe my eyes on the last challenge. It turned into a daily ritual to see what the numbers were.


Lori, I was torn between both your pieces and had a very difficult time deciding. I really liked yours, especially the color scheme. Mine, on the other hand, didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. For some reason, I always mess up on the nose. (Sorry about that Sassy )

It was a very interesting challenge. Thank you! I can't wait to get started on the next one, but it will have to wait until after the retreat.

Good work Colleen! This was a more challenging challenge for me.
I did have fun with it though.

Congratulations Colleen!!! I SO loved your challenge piece! It is FABULOUS!!!
Everyone always does such great work! I have enjoy all of the challenges...from the sidelines!

Congrat's are in order for a very clever project. Sue

Congratulations to everyone who did this challenge and especially to alexemmarose.

Any chance these will be at COF? I think it'd be fun to see in person.

Congratulations Alexemmarose!

All of you did a great job!!!

...All of you did such a great job... and you interpreted with a lot of creativity.
Very fun to look at and SEE the titles.

Lori, just wanted you to know I received your nice note and the ** inside. Thanks so much again to you and everyone.
