We are finished the first round over at
Tangled Textiles, and it has been a fabulous start to the journey! Our first post went up on the blog on April 1, 2011, with our first challenge theme released on April 4. Beverly started us off with a good one - Games, and set the tone for seven more challenging - at times mind boggling and frustrating - themes. It was fun and exhilarating and inspiring to see how everyone interpreted the various themes. To see a mosaic of everyone's interpretations, click on the theme name under the following mosaic of my pieces.
Some of us were experimental with our techniques, and some of us stayed with the tried and true, but I think we all learned a great deal about our likes and dislikes, what methods we prefer to use, colour preferences etc. It was definitely all that I was hoping it would be, and I am so pleased that we are all continuing!
Beverly will be starting us off with the first theme for round 2 in the next couple of days. We will continue in much the same way, although we are hoping to get more interaction happening on the blog - less about the big reveal at the end, more about our process to get there - that means more learning possibilities, and that is always a good thing!
Happy quilting!

This work just blows my mind, Janet. Superb. Can't wait to see what you have in store for this coming round!
As always, a superb collection of pieces, Janet! I've enjoyed seeing these quilts on your blog over the past year and I look forward to the next round!
Fabulous work! Love your innovative style and the way you interpret the themes!
Lovely to see not only all your work together but also all the themed pieces together as well. Looking forward to the next round.
I love these challenges - it is always amazing to see the different interpretations of a theme! If you ever want a new member, I'd love to participate in a challenge like this.
A great achievement. It's great to see them all together. Mine are on the wall.
