2012 TAST & CQJP project.
I have signed up for both
the TAST and the CQJP challenges for 2012.
TAST (Take A Stitch Tuesday) is an embroidery stitching challenge run by SharonB of Pintangles. Aim - to focus on one particular stitch (one a week for the whole year) with an emphasis on advancing personal stitching skills.
CQJP (Crazy Quilt Journal Project) is to create 12 Crazy Quilt blocks (one a month for the whole year). Aim - to increase awareness of crazy quilting internationally and to provide a central location for the public to view examples of crazy quilt projects in progress and completed. Details here.
Both these challenges complement each other and I shall be using some of
the TAST stitches
as embellishment on a CQ wall hanging in a particular colour scheme that
I have
never used before (that is an extra challenge to myself). I also
envisage using the
TAST challenge stitches on another piece that will, hopefully, satisfy
my “free
form” and mixed media yearning. I am, predominantly, a hand-stitcher by
choice, so I can see these challenges taking up quite a bit of my time.
