I had some blocks left over so I started another crazy quilt. I want to put a large block of words in the middle of this one and then put the crazy blocks around it. I'm not sure what words or phrase to use. Any ideas out there?
There is a block of words that would be amazing in the middle of this - but it's way too long. It's a quote from Nietzsche: "I tell you: one must have chaos within oneself, to give birth to a dancing star."
Ok, here's something I used to do when I taught poetry as a school teacher. Let's say you are right-handed...so when you are stuck creatively, ask yourself a question (in your case, "What words should go in the middle of this quilt?"), switch the pencil to your left hand, and write whatever comes to mind for one minute. You would be surprised at the outcome. :-)

Mind you - that's just my two cents. :)
How about "as the spirit moves"?
These really are fun blocks.
"Creativity is Messy", "Crazy Creativity" I'm not that creative with words That's why I use my hands and scraps of color.
