The International Art Quilt Challenge
Colorplay Book
Our new self-published book is now available on Amazon
About Twelve by Twelve
We are twelve quilt artists who embarked on an art challenge together. We're from different places throughout the world and our artistic styles vary, but we share a love of art quilting and a desire to play, experiment, learn, and grow.
For four years (2007-2011), we each made a 12x12 inch quilted art piece on a designated theme or palette. See our Theme Series and our Colorplay series.
For the 2012 Series, we changed things a bit and made rectangular pieces, 20x12 inches with roughly 10 weeks between each challenge. As before, we had a designated theme for each challenge.
We shared our process, progress, and results on this blog. It remains a key record of our rich collaboration.

Ha!! My husband threw out the Gimme Shelter and wondered if any of you would get it. I thought of under the bridge,a cardboard box or park bench shelter.
Gimme Shelter was the first thing in my brain, too!
Well, though I love the Rolling Stones, 'Gimme Shelter' was not the first thing I thought of. I have had the Bob Dylan song 'Shelter from the Storm' as my earworm ever since the theme was announced!

Hmmm, are we showing our age here? I've been singing Gimme Shelter since I read the theme too.
;-)
In addition to homeless shelters, I thought about being sheltered -- as in "she led a sheltered life." Not sure if that will grow into anything though since I also would like to continue with my home.
Again, a great theme to work with -- so many possibilities.
Home theme is what I meant to say.
