Challenge Ideas?

My quilt guild (the Cobblestone Quilters)will celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2008. I have volunteered to coordinate a quilt challenge for the anniversary. Because I'm more of an artsy-fartsy quilter and my guild is fairly traditional, we've asked for someone else to work with me on the rules. (I think they're afraid I'm going to require everyone to use silver lame'!) So far, no one has volunteered, but I'm sure someone will. In the meantime I've been trying to come up with some ideas.

Here are some of the things I've considered:

*The use of 25 of something in the quilt (25 different fabrics...25 pieces...25 blocks...)

*The use of silver fabric

*Use a technique learned in a class taken through the guild

*A representation of what the guild means to the maker

Anyone else have some ideas to share?

Imagine my surprise when I checked and you had a new post! LOL

I like either the using 25 or the silver fabric. Altho what the guild means to me might be interesting.
