Le Challenge #22 - WOOD

It's been over two years since the start of le challenge. Nat and I have made projects for every theme during that time and, even if it was a little late, we always make something to show you in the post where you link up your finishes. I'm impressed with us. 

Life can get in the way though and Nat will be skipping this month because she and her littlest have been poorly. She's doing better now and will be back in the game for the next challenge :)

So here's what I made:

An InLinkz Link-up

We hope you've been getting on with your projects for the theme 'wood' but here's some ideas to help spark some creativity...

head Into The Woods with fabric by Lella Boutique

or be inspired by stories set in the woods, like these gorgeous patterns: 

Wolf Bait Cape pattern and Rose Red Woodland Doll pattern by Lella Boutique

this growth chart has a great woodland theme

you could be more literally and use wood patterns as inspiration: 

Nature Tree Rings, Northwoods Artisan Batiks by Lunn Studios and 

Green Wood, Happy Harvest by Doodlebug Design

or even woodcuts! 

or you could be inspired by beach wood, like this Driftwood pattern

and the possibilities for creating things literally made of wood are endless!!

I have to admit to not starting yet (ekkk!) but there's still one week to go until the link opens and I have an idea brewing.

Pop back on the 15th of May to link up your finished projects based on the theme 'wood' and a random winner will receive a $25 gift certificate to the Fat Quarter Shop :)

If you are new round these woods then please head here to read the what we're all about and the 'rules'.

How is everyone getting on? Any more ideas you'd like to add leave a comment!

Naturally a new theme...

We hope you won't be stumped by this month's theme:

Definitely not the most obvious theme but we are hoping you will really push your creativity with this one! There are many ways to incorporate the theme WOOD (my childish self is giggling) and to actually use wood as a material obviously.

For the full low down on le challenge please read these guidelines. Anyone can join in, using any medium and create a finished project based on 'wood'. The link will open 14th May and one person will be chosen by random to win a £25 gift certificate to the Fat Quarter Shop!
