hehe - that's me, deep and meaningful! (Heavy sarcasm)

Would it be possible to have a picture of the stitcher sent with the patch? I would love to make a scrapbook to send with the quilt. Put some WIPs and such in there. Just an idea. It wouldn't be a fancy scrapbook.

Wait - are we still putting our initials (in stitches) or something on our patches? I wasn't sure if that ever got decided on for sure. It was a suggestion from me but I wasn't sure if you all liked it.

Oh. I like the book idea. With the info about each person and why they decided to do it?

That would be a cool little..l side gift to send with the Quilt, or something, or... I dunno. Haha.

I don't think Holder did, and as that patch is nearly finished, we'll go with no.

But yeah, a photo, a paragraph of who you are and anything else you want to add would be awesome for the project. And then we could list the patches made by said person by them so people can have a face to put to a patch.

IF we do the book idea - I'll happily photocopy the book for anyone who wants a copy. ^_^ The Patchwork Pokemon Gym Scrapbook. (Wow, sounds official.)

Like it could be Published or something. xDD

As for the initials, it wouldn't take much to slap on some backstitch. That's pretty easy. <3

The scrapbook sounds fantastic!! but what else will we put in it? D: apart from stuf about us individually. we should put some of the random comments and quotes in from here too, as people has come out with a couple of funny comments.

Also!

I think we should kind of put a note in there as to how long the quilt took to make. I think it would be interesting for the person who gets it to know how much work was really put into it. =D

True - Backstitch initials would be simple.

I'll PM Holder.

So things needed for the Scrapbook - Photo of you (no cheating), a paragraph about you and anything else you want to add. Post WIPs to the forum and eventually the website that Blackmageheart is making for us. Then take a pic of the finished project at your place before you send it to me. I'll work my contacts and get high quality close ups of the patches when they're in the quilt.

But don't expect me to finish the book until after the quilt is done. Besides, we'll want to include the publicity campaign and the auction details and stuff.

We ought to have a map to show where all the participants are. Out of curiosity is anyone NOT in the US, Australia, Canada or England?

Do you mean hours worked on it or day project started to day project finished?

I mean day started to day finished. Or about that.
I mean, it might be hard to figure who started their patch first, so we can just estimate that.
And whoever finishes the last post should just post what day they finished their last patch.

=D This is getting more an more awesome by the day. I'm so excited.
