Yes, in a lot of ways I feel it is better to be asked to have it hang at the LQS. She has a lot more at stake in putting it into her shop ... than a Judge who remains unknown!! And so do I have a lot at stake ... being that I will know a lot of people who see it ... and quilters tend to be harder judges of their peers work than the spectators who stroll by at a Fair! YIKES!!! what have I agreed to? :D |
Jeanie--your blocks look great! I especially like the orange fabric you used in ICB.
|
Jeanie, your blocks are wonderful. I don't think HT is too busy--I think it captures the spirit of the Pony Club. I also agree with QE--mmmmm orange sherbet. And what perfect piecing!!
|
Oh Jeanie- I'm sorry, How did I miss your blocks???? They are lovely! Such detail! I love those saddles in home treasures. I think that it may look a li'le busy alone but in the quilt it will be just the right movement in the right place! I also agree that the orance in your icecream bowl looks like sherbert.

JeannieG, I don't think your block is too busy, I love the saddles!! I also love the orange creamsicle in your ice cream bowl. Great job on both!!

And then, I need to work on the International Patriotic Challenge here on the Board .... anyone else going to join us for that? Sure would be nice!!!!!!! |

I think it's quite an honor to be asked to hang your quilt in the LQS, congratulations!! What is the Int'l Patriotic Challenge??
http://www.quiltingboard.com/quiltin...e-t186260.html W4Me has hers completed ... whereas I have spent too much time on FWS and PC and not moved ahead with my Mr. Monty! OBTW .... it's anything and everything ... whether a PUP that's been sitting for awhile or a new project; something fun and whimsical or something serious; big or small. Anything fits!! As for the date ... we chose July 1st as it is Canada Day ... and close to your American 4th July celebrations. The patriotic part does not have to be national patriotism, but could be showing your community patriotism or heritage or ??? ... really anything goes. Back to the date ... it's just a date .... and honestly, we expect it will continue on, long after!!! So Come One, Come All!! ... Come on over and join in the fun!!! (and yes, it's become quite a little chatty hang out too!) |

I like the saddles, Jeanie! Maybe you don't like it as well cuz it's paired next to the Orange Sherbet block. Once you get it mixed with a nice companion block plus sashing you may change your mind!
Not getting much done here--house has quieted just a bit, enough for me to catch a nap late this afternonn. Hopefully the 2 little ones will get close to their at home routines for the rest of the week. Now that the Wisconsin crew has headed home it will make a difference. |
OKSGlad ... get a routine going ... kidlets nap and so does Granny! :) The week will fly by all too quickly and then they'll be gone ......... and you'll be ready for a llllllllong nap to be in fine form for DS's DGF "experience you"!! :)
Happy Father's Day!!! ... I hope that you have all had a splendid day/weekend celebrating with your Fathers, Husbands and families! I'm ever so green with envy! |
