Didn't mean to confuse you or anyone. They (the rest of the world besides the US?) don't have the same paper size that we do. We have letter, legal and who knows what else and each isn't 1/2 of the size before it. It's just different and probably doesn't matter. if we want a particular size we just need to specify.

Ideas are interesting....I like round robin projects...as they involve everyone with each quilt. It is so nice
to have a bit of everyone's work. I've done round by round, row by row and I saw one done round,
but each side was a different maker ! Lots of people in that one ! Would require some mailing and some
time requirements.....could by mystery or not....the row one I did...we didn't know whose quilt we were
working on until the big reveal at the end !! There were 7 of us and all were super ! Picture challenges look fun, too.
Journal page quilts might be fun, too....maybe a little harder to stay committed where someone else isn't
"involved" as it were....I've done some guild challenges over the years that were fun, too.....Pick a topic, make
a quilt a certain size,etc., Maybe use a special fabric....Well....lets keep talking ! :D

Rita, your thoughts on "falandering" give clarity to my quilt life. I am "Jack of all trades/techniques and master of none. But I continue to be drawn to new ways to create my craft. It's certain, "Flandering" fits my quilting style. Now its back to the book that arrived with the return of my "whisper quilt" to learn more about the Scottish Quilt Flanderers.

A filanderer as used here would be a description of somebody (usually male) who 'plays around' with lots of women. It's a good title for a quilting group who 'play around' with ideas? It's a fun title, suggests they are playful. Their work looks lovely.

Just love that stag. He needs to be on the roundabout on my way to work!

Some more examples. We need never make quilts just go on showing pics :lol:

They also did miniature round robins (top row) and their own Chinese Whispers (bottom row).

Oh you were talking about that idea. For the pictures that Wendy is showing, one person made the longer one and then other members of the group made the smaller companion quilts to it. I don't remember how long they had to do these. It was a great idea, but probably more difficult to achieve internationally.
