THEMES FOR 2022
Hi Everyone.
I would like to thank you all so much for your suggestions for themes for 2022. I have compiled a list, including as many as possible.
January- All creatures Great and Small - From the smallest bug to the tallest giraffe. Colours in PJs, stripes or patterns of animals. Appliques, embroidery or intarsia/duplicate stitching of animals. CoM - Pink. Bev
February- Vivacious variegateds, Stupendous Stripes and Dazzling Diagonals. CoM - Purple Gloria
March - Educate Me - Numbers, Letters, colours, short words. CoM - Blue. Karen
April - Let's Celebrate - Special occasions throughout the year and throughout the world. Easter, Christmas, Chinese New Year, Mandela Day, La Tomatina...to name a few. CoM Red Bev
May - Under an African Sky - African animals, flora, colours, flag. CoM - Yellow Amy
June - Like Night and Day - Colour opposites.
E.g. Neons/dark, pale/dark of the same colour. Could be done in solid colour squares, stripes, half and half or other patterns. CoM - Turquoise Patricia
July - Things That Move - Cars, trucks, aeroplanes, trains, diggers, rockets and colours representative of. CoM - Orange. Amy
August - Give Me A Hug - Hearts, teddies colours....anything that makes you feel warm and fuzzy. CoM - Lavender Marion
September - Nature's Beauty - The wonders of the four seasons. Colours, flora, Spring babies. CoM- Green. Karen
October - Under the Sea - Marine life, shells, colours of the sand and sea. CoM - Blue. Rebecca
November - What's Your Favourite? Colours, patterns, textures. CoM - Brown. Bev
December - Bits 'n' Pieces - End of year where we can use up all the scraps we have accumulated throughout the year and also finish off bits and pieces (projects/squares) that fell by the wayside during the year.
CoM - Red. Patricia
Please remember that PJ squares are so important when creating our blankets, so even if you think a theme is 'not for you' solid colour squares representative of that theme will ALWAYS be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you, Patricia for putting up your hand for December, always a busy and challenging month to volunteer for.
Thank you, Glo for volunteering to host February. Which theme would you like to host?
Thank you, Amy, Karen and Rebecca for also volunteering to host. Please pick a month and theme, the list above is not in any monthly order, except December, Bits and Pieces.
We will have a few gaps to fill. If you have never hosted and feel you would like to, please feel free. We will support you in any queries you might have.

I love your lineup, Bev. Good job, well done!!! Thank you ❤
I was digging through my stash(es) the other day and realized that most of my yarn is variegated! So ... unless someone else has designs on it, I will choose Vivacious Varigateds, Stupendous Stripes, Dazzling Diagonals for February ... xo

I'm happy to do June as well as December (if needed) and my choice for that would be Like Night and Day, but if that's someone else's first choice I can change.

May is fine...I can work anything now that stripes is taken. I am not so good with stripes.
I have hosted both themes before so I have a head start...

Thanks Amy. I picked those two, as I knew that you had hosted them before and thought familiarity might encourage your creative juices. :))
I might put you down for Under an African Sky, then??? Thank you. :))

- For the purposes of getting the first 3 months allocated and knowing some folk work a month ahead,....... and the lack of others stepping up yet, can I offer myself for January too......? I'd pick Nature's Beauty and GREEN. KX
