Next Challenge - you decide!

Post by blackmageheart »

Since we have less active members than usual, we aren't getting as many entries to the challenges as we normally would. So, I'm thinking - how can we shake things up?
I want you guys to choose what you'd like to do for the next activity - be that a regular-style challenge, a stitchalong or whatever you can think of - and we will make it happen!

I would totally be down for a stitchalong of some sort. Maybe it will get me out of my current stitching slump.

A SAL sounds okay; I have been trying to get out of my stitch slump too - there are not enough hours in the day to work and stitch hee hee
Just keep stitching...

Apparently, we're all in a stitching slump. (Granted, I'm in an "everything" slump, but I digress.) A Stitch-A-Long sounds fun. I've never done one.

Long time reader, first time poster. I look forward to sharing my recent work on a new thread soon. Though this challenge caught my eye and is what finally had me cross the edge to make a forum account. I concur a SAL sounds lovely.

SAL would be cool. Another suggestion could be ATC (artist trading card) exchanges. Would be quick and fun and maybe a little more motivating since we would know our stitchings would be going somewhere and we would also be receiving something?

This is something I have always wanted to do (in any medium) and we should definitely do it - if not now, then perhaps at some point soon?

Thank you for joining up! We do need more new people around here :)

Yup XD


...so I'm taking from this so far that a SAL is the popular idea. I gotta admit - last SAL I couldn't even finish mine and it's still around somewhere in my pile of neglected projects. For shame!
Anyway, a new SAL might just be what we all need! What kind of stuff would you all like to see in such an event?
