12/12/12 Project- Interested?

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!

    I think that it is a great idea. 12" x 12" is achievable. Now for some ideas!!

    I'm in, my son was born on 12/12/80. So the number 12 has a special meaning for me.

    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'!

    I 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.

    What a great idea. I've been needing to make a 12 x 12 JOY quilt for ages for The 12 by 12 project http://the12by12project.blogspot.com/
    and was even sketching it yesterday. I think I'll make doing it in 12 days part of the challenge!
