Welcome to our 3rd Project Quilting/Needlework Challenge Results Show!
For this one I sent a fat quarter to 10 willing people who had 50 days to come up with anything of their choice. There were no restrictions except that they had to use the fq in some way.
Voting ends on June 30th, winner will be announced July 1.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Gonesewin,

I had to add an entry in accidentally left off. If you already voted, please vote again because your votes are gone.

Unfortunately I didn't get my replacement FQ until Saturday so had no time to make anything for this challenge. I'm stil wondering where the heck my original FQ is hiding? Lily must be hidsing it along with half the socks in the house!

oh no way - this is just not fair ... choosing one was downright stressful. I finally did - I hope the list in the poll reflects the order of the pictures .... well done everyone.
I cannot change 'things', but I can change how I feel about them. Me.
Having seen the fabric they started with, they all deserve to win. I could not have begun to make something so nice. Probably would have ended up with pot holders or mug rugs.

Wonderful projects, everyone, and another great challenge, Gonesewin'. The first time I looked through them, one took my heart. I went back several times, and could make an argument for any of them, but finally I voted with my heart.

Jean...Congratulations on a well deserved win!! You have your creative mojo on these days, girl!
...didn't you say you were too busy to play in the next challenge?!!? lol...just kidding...am looking forward to trying to out-mojo you and all you other fabulous stitchers!
I just thought all of the participants did a very good job coming up with original ways to use this great batik. Fun to see...
Congratultions Jean!! The placemats are beautiful.
Challenges like this require "thinking outside the box" & I'm sooooo not good at that. Everyone did a fantastic job on their contributions to this challenge.

• • • I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw those numbers and they kept climbing. I wanted to scream THANK YOU right then and there, but Lori would have had my head. I also wanted to help her keep the post bumped up, but I was afraid you all would think I was bucking for more votes.
I think all the projects were terrific and I especially liked Jody's wall hanging. I have to get ready for work, but I'll be back later to try and answer your questions.
Thank you all so MUCH!

Just fabulous Jayardi!!! The placemat itself was a knockout, but the QUILTING blew my socks off! PLEASE start sending your stuff off to magazines!!!your creativity is just amazing!
I loved everybody's work this time. It's getting harder and harder to choose every time. This group has major creative genes (jean too)
