    Picture Quilt for Bruce

    I would really like everyone to sign a picture of their favorite BP (your bps only, unless you have permission to use someone else's picture). Send them to me I will make a quilt out of them. Then auction it off on bp.net, and Bruce can keep the winnings (unless you would rather have the quilt), I can make more than one. Maybe a silent auction type?

    Before I get the supplies, I want to make sure this is a good idea. Let me know what you think. I've made them before and they look really awesome!! Anyone up for it?

    Re: Picture Quilt for Bruce

    Probably e-mail. Hopefully I can get lots of them, and it will be easier to sort through. I'm not sure if signing them will be easy for everyone, so I can always just add your name to picture before it is quilted.

    My e-mail is stratus_020202@yahoo.com. Go ahead and send me some beautiful ones. I'll see what I have as I go, and I can always make the pictures bigger or smaller.

    Does anyone know Bruce's favorite color? I'm going to need some ideas for borders.

    Re: Picture Quilt for Bruce

    I think this is a wonderful idea! I've got a crazy week coming up around here but next week I'll make sure and pick a picture and we'll sign it for you and get it emailed. Send Bruce a PM with a link to this thread and ask him about colors since I'm not really sure what he'd prefer that way.

    Is there a particular minimum and maximum size you'd like people to stay within for their pictures?

    Re: Picture Quilt for Bruce

    Alright! Come on guys. I have some wonderful pics, but I'm going to need more. Size really doesn't matter, because I can resize from here. But no poster sizes. lol. My computer has to be able to handle it.

    Re: Picture Quilt for Bruce

    I'll try and take a pic sometime in the next couple of days and pass it along to you.

    Great idea btw!

    Re: Picture Quilt for Bruce

    I have never seen a picture quilt... but I will google it and see.

    I love the idea. I can even send one of my babes to be in the menagerie.

    Dare I suggest that I am not just about BPs? Keep in mind I am a colubrid, blood, retic, and boa guy too.

    Thank you for this project, it is no doubt a lot of work and I really appreciate you not just considering it, but actually taking it on as well.
