The challenge: PQ 10.4. Pixel Play

It’s a digital age, and the online world is made up of pixels. They’re the little boxes of color that make up an electronic image – literally, the word came from “picture elements.”

This week, I’d like you to be inspired by these particles, whether you pixelize a picture, make use of low resolution like 8-bit graphics, or are merely inspired by these hard-working colored boxes.

The rules:

1. Be inspired by digital pixelization.
2. Projects need to be created during the week of the challenge (started on or after February 17, finished by February 24).
3. Your project does not need to be a traditional quilt, but must meet at least one of these three requirements: include patchwork, include appliqué, have 3 layers stitched together by hand or machine.
4. Incomplete or unfinished does not qualify. Every challenge piece must be a FINISHED project seen through from INCEPTION to COMPLETION during the challenge timeline.
5. Link up at the bottom of THIS PAGE by Sunday, February 24 at noon CST (here’s a link to time zone converter to calculate for Central Standard Time: www.thetimezoneconverter.com)

• Add to the linky the URL of your project’s blog post, instagram picture, or public facebook posting
• Alternately, by 11am on Sunday, February 24 you may email a picture and description to {lapaceksorchard at gmail dot com} with PROJECT QUILTING in the subject line. Yes, one hour earlier because it requires work for Kim.

Good luck, and remember to HAVE FUN!
