I would've posted this up in the challenge section, but only mods can post there.
Thanks to Lord Libidan for bringing this up!

So, let's have your ideas and thoughts on a May/June challenge, people! Astrological signs/symbols? Or something else?

Does it have to be stitched? Why can't it be just a design challenge? I would love to join in the challenges, but I'm a bit swamped atm.

Yeah, I agree there.

With two quilts in progress, stitching something on time would be hard for some of us that wanna participate.

It doesn't necessarily have to be stitched - the challenges are generally open to everyone on the board no matter what their craft :)
I do hear what you're saying though, a lot of people are busy right now with various things, so we'll take that into consideration while we come up with a plan!

I'd like to get a vote or at least a general consensus going in the last week of April. So, more suggestions, please! :D

Considering time constrains, etc, how about something small like... magnets. Not sure the exact ins and outs, but maybe max of three magnets or something? I dunno...

Key chains are small.

Since May and June are all about Mother's and Father's day, maybe we could do something family themed? Not sure what, but I like the idea of video game family. Kinda like the unlikely partnership one we did for February.

I love the magnet idea - what about a spring/summer video game item magnet challenge?

You would make 3 Magnets based on items from a video game that represent a spring or summer theme.
