Ever since we started this process I have been casually mulling over what theme I would choose but for some reason thought there was one more person before me. So when Diane emailed to remind me to pick, of course, my mind went blank. I turned to my husband for help. He suggested 'The Pelopennesian Wars'. Right.
You will be glad to know that, I decided not to to avail myself of his assistance and, totally at random from the words circling round in my head, I have picked..... identity.
Have at it!

The International Art Quilt Challenge

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.

Am I allowed two eye iris quilts?
I have enjoyed seeing the wide range of window quilts. Unfortunately, I missed the window of time to play along with this one. Maybe I will be able to do something with identity, which seems that it will produce a wide variey as well.
Dang. I have a brilliant idea for the Pelopennesian Wars.
Just kidding.
This will REALLY be a challenge, Helen... very good theme!
Thanks for the laugh-out-loud. He just gave you that answer so you will never ask him again. Too funny.
Under definitions for identity is this:
10.Australian Informal. an interesting, famous, or eccentric resident, usually of long standing in a community.
Would this be Kirsty or Brenda?
All I can say, Helen, is...
...THANK HEAVENS FOR THAT!!
I think this will be a fun theme.
Gerrie, you are more likely to find Brenda and me listed under "Sheila (Kiwi)". I think you have to have been on the cover of the Australian Womans Weekly to be considered an "Identity"!
You are all having too much fun!!
I loved the husband's comment, so helpful. I really enjoy your blog and of course your finished challenges.
Hmmm, identity: I quilt, therefore I am?
As always, I enjoyed all of the various quilts on your window theme - thanks!
Oh me oh my! This looks challenging.
