BROWN BAG BLOCK PARTY 2009
Country Piecemakers
Now this is what I finished tonight – I am so excited about it. It is the TOP of the Country Piecemaker’s Brown Bag Project – I named mine Brown Bag Block Party Quilt 2009. I am going to make the pieced back for it tonight! 🙂
The blocks were made by sao, Barbara, Sandie, Heidi, Donna and Linda……I am really pleased with it! I have a confession – I really am not that fond of the color teal but I had some fabric left over from the quilt that I made for my brother Fred – he wanted a teal, brown and gray quilt (Remember Fred’s Boxy Stars Quilt with the t-shirt with pockets for the back?)
And it turns out that I LOVE this quilt -so I should thank my brother, Fred, for the inspiration! I probably should have SAVED this for next year to be shown at the FINISHED QUILT REVEAL at the guild meeting – but I am not good at keeping my own secrets. On the other hand, I take pride in and am able to keep other people’s secrets. 🙂

Brown Bag Block Party
Oh my, the Today show had a segment on energy drinks this morning, the pros and cons and the unnatural attributes and it only served to confirm how I have no need whatsoever for their pricey caffeine laden jolts – ALL I HAVE TO DO IS READ SHIRLEY’S BLOG – boy, if that doesn’t get your heart racing, NOTHING will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am soooooooooooooooo ever grateful to be able to call her dear friend as she makes me look and feel gooooood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
