I'd prefer a little more time to carve, June is really busy for me already. Summer theme sounds pretty good, I think I have an idea already. One other idea, maybe a few days before the draw we should get a confirmed count? Maybe with progress pictures included? That way if someone wasn't able to get to the piece, they could just be dropped at that point and people are guaranteed a piece? Mieko Yeah, I agree with this...make the draw from the participants who have posted finished work by the deadline. I thought that was how it would be done last time. It's definitely the fairest way to ensure it goes smoothly. I don't know about pirate theme - I think we'll just see a dozen tikis with eyepatches, not to mention skulls and crossbones are a bitch to carve! Maybe something more general like sea/nautical themed would give people more scope.
