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're going to discover three new and exciting tactics for making a patchwork quilt.
1) Get Stronger With Every Patch
To commence you off with something straightforward, here's a challenge that's going to push your body and your abilities to the limit.
Cut up and collect all of your quilting patches, then sort them into groups. For each group, assisgn one fitness exercise.
After you sew each patch on to your quilt, you then have to go and do that exercise. After you've it all fixed, it should look something like this:
- Green patch - 10 push-ups
- Purple patch - fifteen 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 ever find that quilting is chewing up all of your time or merely find that it just simply takes far too long to make each quilt?
Well then it is time to get a hold of a candle, light it and stick it between your toes. You start your quilt when you light the candle and do not stop till either the quilt is finished or the candle runs out.
If the candle burns out first, you have got to toss away your current patchwork quilt and start again.
You will be staggered by how quickly you can put a quilt together when you don't care about the little inconsistencies and you will be surprised at just how many corners you can cut to save lots of time here and there!
3) Ultra Extreme Mode
This one is short and easy.
Get a deadly animal, a poisionous snake, a handfull of scorpions or a wild tiger and put them in a room.
Then get your quilting materials ready and dive in. The challenge here is to get in, and make your quilt and get out before anything bad occurs.
Yes, you can hold your head proud when you complete this extraordinary challenge, knowing that you are the most hardcore of quilters of any that you know. And you can rest in piece with the certainty that you can stare down any number of deadly 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!
Readers please note : This is all in good fun, don't actually consider doing any of the above. Well except perhaps the exercise one, that should be fine.
