Three Stooges saves the day!

Our Guild gets comfort and cuddle quilts mostly for women and girls. There is a shortage for boys of all ages. So, when I am making a quilt to give away, I try for the boy thing. Also, I like to have quilts already made, on hand in case I need a gift. Since I was working on this already...I was hoping for the boy. I cut up so much fabric and messed around, ugh, made a mess...trying for the border to tie it all in and make it at least for either sex....and then I saw the half yard of Three Stooges fabric that had been sitting on my shelf awhile.

I had hoped that my Wednesday quilting group would help me baste this, but I had to cancel it again for tomorrow night since I am still not well. There is progress. Today I am 5% better than yesterday!!!! No whining I said! Plus, the Three Stooges makes me smile:)

I want to put this fabric on the back. I should not have to worry whether or not it is "boy" enough..but I want whoever to like it....hmmm....Maybe it is bed time.

One patch love finished

I finished this today after the Father's Day celebration was over. I still like it..kinda down home.

This backing is from forever ago.

My sister was here today. She said that we bought this at a mall in east Phoenix before her daughter was born and Alexis is 24...here we go again. If you keep something long enough, it comes back in style. Grey is in now, but I do not think fake oriental writing is...
