My Quilt Label Becomes a SELF-DESTRUCT Control Panel

Posted By on July 14, 2009

Six-year olds look at things in the world a bit differently than those of us who lovingly embellish our quilts and our quilt labels!

Do you remember my Strip Twist Quilt – Bonnie K. Hunter’s Super Bowl Challenge 2009?

You may also remember that Grandangel Cooper claimed it for his bed after his parents painted his room blue!

However, the beautiful quilt became transformed when Cooper decided that he HAD to have the BACK SIDE UP because he LOVED THE LABEL!

So – tonight – before Cooper went to sleep he twisted the control knobs (we quilters refer to these KNOBS as  YO YOs) and he carefully touched the buttons in a specific order and then announced to his sisters, “There, I have set my bed to self-destruct!”
That, my friends, is the basic difference between a six-year-old male child and a quilter.  I am cracking up for real!  🙂  lol
