witha'K'quilting Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Are we right? can you come up with something else for earth? I like Theo's guess of pineapples! How about mountains and hills/valley with grass and flowers for earth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doodlebug Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 i'm right here. i had my lunch break. and yes i was going for the four elements... so you don't like my earth? should i do just straight pebbles, nothing else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtreusch Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 You might try making the pebbles different sizes and shapes to get away from looking like grapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bekah Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Shannon can you make your grasses longer and skinnier? It does look like a pineapple or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witha'K'quilting Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 i agree, long skinnier grass, maybe different sized rocks. hope you had a nice lunch while we were on the edge of our seats waiting for you.

Quilting Heidi Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 #1 & #2 are the ones that I coudln't figure out. I think the vegitation in #2 threw me off. I think the wind needs a little more curvy swirl to it. I first thought #1 was waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doodlebug Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 *light bulb* what if i did a leafy meander.....or something ferny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witha'K'quilting Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 ferns should work for earth...and Heidi is probably right, swirls in the wind would change it to not look as much like waves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meg_marsh Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 # 2 was the only one I had trouble with - I do agree with Heidi that the wind needs a bit more swirly affect. Not sure what to do about earth - pebbles are nice but I don't think one would get it unless they were a quilter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathG Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi Shannon, a bit late but I did think you where going for the elements. I just did a google search and the symbol for Earth is a Circle with a plus in it. just an idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quilting Heidi Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Something ferny should work. What about mountains? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
