    So is the finished product supposed to be a quilt? I'm assuming that because of the title & the specifics around the backing, binding, etc. but just want to be sure.

    Question; are photos considered recycled since they had a previous life in my photo album?

    Your project does not need to be a traditional quilt. All the other things like bags, dolls, skirts, etc, are OK for this challenge, just like all the others. What I was trying to say is that your entire project needs to be made from recycled items. The only allowed exceptions are thread (a really tough re-use any day) and batting (or whatever you use for filler).

    Yes, I would consider your photos to be recycled.

    Have fun! Can't wait to see what you all come up with.
