In 15 days, it will be December 12, 2012 or 12/12/12. We won't see this kind of date happen again for a long time. I think it would be fun if we created 12 inches by 12 inches pieces on that day and shared them. It can be on anything that you wish--what you're doing that day, the number 12 and it's meaning to you, etc. Are you game? If so, let me know.
I am so happy people are interested! Liz Nutter shared that the next time this will happen is January 1, 2101.
I am thinking that if you have a blog, send me a link and I'll post it when I reveal mine. If you don't have a blog, I will gladly post your quilt. Other suggestions are welcome. I am excited!
Karen,
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely interested in your 12" x 12" project...

I think that it is a great idea. 12" x 12" is achievable. Now for some ideas!!
ReplyDeleteI think I may try to make that happen! Sounds fun!
ReplyDeleteKaren, Sounds like great fun and my birthday is also on 12/12/12.
ReplyDeleteI'm in, my son was born on 12/12/80. So the number 12 has a special meaning for me.
ReplyDeleteIt does sound like FUN! Hope I can fit it in around all the other stuff I have going on.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great project!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great idea

Yikes - I'm comment # 13....but the 12 x 12 sounds like great fun. I'm going to challenge my small local art quilt group to do this at our bi-weekly creative session which just happens to fall on 12-12-12. Must be 'karma'!
ReplyDeleteNow this has gotten my attenion Karen!

sounds like just the thing to bridge the gap between xmas and mardi gras. Syd
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! My friend's birthday is that day and so it will be the perfect gift for her. I already have an idea of what I would like to try.
ReplyDeleteI am not going to wait until the 12th to create my piece, I want to have it ready to gift that day. My piece will be in honor of the occasion.
DeleteGo for it and do share! Hugs, Karen
DeleteCount me in Karen... I am game, and sounds like a fun idea.
