ThatRadFreak Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Well, i got this idea when CazGirl started the 'im shocked' thread, and basically, my idea is a patchwork quilt, so members could send me their 'patches' and then i could attempt to try and make a quilt or a blanket type thing from it, my mum knows all of this stuff so it shouldn't be too hard. It doesn't need to be knitted, it can be made from material, and ot decorate it you could sew onto it or add extra materials. As means of getting the blanket to him, im going to three gigs of his in 5-6monthes [24th November and 2&3 December] so there should be more then enough time to put it together =] And the plus side of the blanket is that maybe it'll persuade him to sleep hehe =] Does anyone like this idea? People who have said they like the idea [and hopefully you'll do it cos otherwise tell me soon! lol] BexxY Ioana kjoshi sherry_baby Monshi Kavi Diana jemmalee Satu mouselle kantorlight rilo8913 my_rainbow_radio mikaluvr And now for the girlies who like the idea, but cant sew or knit and stuff =] skimbletapps CazGirl Dangerous Kat GhostsInTheRadio Stormy Weather Finkster soangel happikali i think what will happen for the people who cant sew or knit is that there is either going to be a patch for you, to say that you wanted to be part of it, but cant sew, lol, or you could send a picture/ drawing, and then it can be printed out and ironed onto a patch =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouselle Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Please count me in. For people who can't sew, they just need to send a page of what they would like printed onto fabric, like a message or picture, and any colour ink-jet printer can print it onto specially prepared fabric. Then it can be sewn as a regular patch in the quilt. That means everyone can be involved, and it could be like a scrap book as a quilt. (LOL- I can see this thing becoming rather large, and very popular!) You can buy ready to print fabric pages, or make your own, using bubble-jet set. Printed pages are better than just drawing on to the fabric, as it is machine washable, and colour-fast. I am willing to help if you want...
