3.  You must use the entire 6" square of each primary color on the front of your project.

4.  You may add any other fabrics or materials you want.

5.  POST your entries with a description of your creative process, including where you are (ie, I create in Madison, WI) and the size of your project by Sunday, January 16, 2011, at noon, CDT, to this flickr group – Project QUILTING with KimsCraftyApple: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1401824@N21/ OR email a picture/description of your completed project to lapaceksorchard {at} gmail {dot} com with PROJECT QUILTING in the subject line.

I had to laugh when I saw this challenge. Just yesterday, I was going through my stash SEARCHING for some red fabric - it is sadly lacking...maybe I'll have to do a little shopping...although I'm pretty sure I can find a 6" square of red somewhere in my basement!

Gail S. said...

I had a customer, just this morning, ask me if I had any quilts that had a lot of red in it. Sadly, the answer is no. I guess I don't work in red much except for Christmas items!

Originals by Lauren said...

I have the perfect idea for this one, now if I can get it done in time....

Jenny Rodriguez said...

I just about a primary pack of polka dot fabric - woohoo!

Kathleen said...

Primary polka dots - sounds fun!
My idea has been marinating/evolving for a few hours. I think I'll let it continue for a bit more before I start. Can't wait to see all the entries!

Sew Savvy said...

I have an idea but can I finish it. Loved season one and hope I can stay strong in Season 2 as I floundered badly in one...

Miss Hillbilly said...

Oh I am so ready this time. Got my thinking cap on....

Marcia - Crafty Sewing and Quilting said...

Ideas - but no sewing yet.... this is exciting!!!

Raige Creations said...

Oh, I can't wait to see the entries! If I had any fabric in primary colors I would be in, but as we are snowed in today, I can't get out. As I have not been a contestant yet, I am anxious this season to jump in and get my feet wet. Maybe next challenge....
