Three Mind Blowing Ways To Make a Patchwork Quilt
Patchwork quilting has long had reputation as being the the past-time of mothers, and grandmas. Well I’m going to challenge that idea today, and here’s how…
You are about to learn 3 new and thrilling ways for making a patchwork quilt.
1) Get Stronger With Each Patch
To start you off with something simple, here is a challenge that is going to push your body and your talents to the edge.
Cut up and collect all of your quilting patches, then sort them into groups. For each group, assisgn one fitness exercise.
After you stitch each patch onto your patchwork quilt, you then have to go and do that exercise. Once you have it all sorted out, it should look something similar to this:
- Green patch – ten pushups
- Purple patch – 15 sit ups
- White Patch – ten chin ups
- Orange Patch fifteen squats
By the point you finish your quilt, you will have a body as tough as granite and the strength to clobber twelve security guards. Be certain to use your new found strength wisely.
2) The Candle Challenge
Do you find that quilting is eating up all your time or just find that it just simply takes far too long to make each quilt?
Well then it’s time to grab hold of a candle, light the wick and place it in between your toes. You start your quilt when you light the candle and don’t stop until either the quilt is finished or the candle runs out.
If the candle runs out first, you’ve got to toss out your present patchwork quilt and start again.
You’ll be astonished by how fast you can put a quilt together when you do not care about the small inconsistencies and you’ll be shocked at just how many corners you can cut to save time here and there!
3) Ultra Extreme Mode
This one is short and easy.
Get a dangerous animal, a poisionous snake, a handfull of scorpions or a wild tiger and put them in a room.
Then get your quilting materials prepared and dive in. The challenge here is to get in, make your patchwork quilt and get out before anything bad happens.
Yes, you can hold your head proud when you complete this intense challenge, knowing you are the most hardcore of quilters of any that you know. And you can rest in piece with the understanding that you can stare down any quantity of lethal animals too!
So lets give the patchwork quilt pre-conception a good shake up and prove to the world that we’re nothing to sneeze at!
