Expert Posts: 4342    Location: Douglasville, GA | a few of our members may remember last year's Song Lyric Blocks Challenge and that the project just kinda faded away after last august . . . the monthly themes and the blocks that were made by those participating were lots of fun, so jess and i thought it was time to get this challenge back up and running!! august, 2009, will be CATCH-UP MONTH! anyone who is interested in joining this challenge may submit blocks, as many blocks as you wish, but only one block for each month's theme for january through august. (i.e. - if you submitted blocks for january & february - like i did - and wish to complete blocks for all or just some of the months of march, april, may, june, july and august themes OR if you are a newer forum member or perhaps did not have the chance to participate before and would like to submit blocks for all or just some of the january-august themes) here are the monthly themes: January - Musical Beginnings: Think of the earliest songs that are important to you. Perhaps it is the music your parents listened to when you were young, a nursery rhyme you loved as a child, or a song your Grandmother hummed while cooking Sunday dinner. February - Romantic Love: Pick a song that has romantic significance to you – it could be you a song that was playing when you had your first dance at the prom, a song that celebrates your marriage or lifelong love, a song that was in your favorite gushy romantic movie – anything that says romantic love to you in a special way. March - Children: You might pick a song that you and your children enjoyed together, or a song that you and your friends sang while playing in the yard, or a song that speaks to you thru the eyes of a child you love. April - Whimsical, Playful, or Funny: Think of a song that always makes you laugh when you hear it, or perhaps a song that someone you know does a funny rendition of. May - Rock the House: Pick a song that makes your feet move, or your backend gyrate, or one that just insists the sound be turned up high. June – Friendship: Pick a song that reminds you of a special friend – one that you and a special friend enjoyed when you heard it together for the first time or one that depicts an activity that you enjoy doing with your friends. July – Loyalty: Pick a song that says, "I will never forsake you or our cause." For you, this may mean anything from patriotism to gospel. August - Anything Goes: Pick any song that you love. you may view all previously submitted blocks and each month's winners here. at the end of august, a poll will be set-up to vote for your favorite among all the blocks. the august 2009 winner will receive a prize from The Quilt & Needle webstore. we will then finish out this year with the themes for september through december! jess and i are so excited about the revival of this challenge - we just want to know one thing . . . WHO'S GONNA JOIN US???????? | ||

Expert Posts: 1906  Location: Golden Shores, Arizona | Well, I'm not really doing this (and I made a quilt, not a block) but this was the inspiration--and it's dedicated to the Q&N forum because of all your inspiration, encouragement, compliments, etc, "You are the Wind beneath my Wings" (Wind Beneath my Wings.jpg) Attachments ----------------  Wind Beneath my Wings.jpg (77KB - 38 downloads) | ||
