Can you believe it's almost Saturday? GrammaMary, I love your F fabric. Brights have always been a favorite, well besides black, white, yellow - oh darn I think I have a lot of all of them.

My C fabric has this on the edge: Designed by The Woodrow Studio London England. Wonder where I got it? I think I got it to be the back to a youth quilt. Has so many fun colors in it. Irish, we have a Joann's here so I'm going to run in there to see if that fabric is here. Can't wait to get started on it, but need to finish a couple things before it.

Well, DH is home for the weekend at least. So glad I finished sewing the top to the Christmas Spicy Swirl today so I can concentrate tomorrow on cutting the mystery fabrics. Judy, I'm looking at either a white TOT or a cream TOT for my E fabric. Will wait to see what looks best when we get to that place.

Did someone say brownies? YES!!! I'll even get the ice cream or cool whip to use with them. Of course, they are really good just by themselves. Oh, frozen is good to - I forgot I have a box of Sam's cheesecakes in the freezer. 3 different ones to choose from - I'll share because you all deserve them.

GrammaMary, switching A and E would work. There is a bit of extra in the 1-1/3 yard, to allow for cutting wrong - I do it sometimes, sad to say, and wanted to make sure you had I think it was 4 to 6 inches..

Wow, everyones fabric looks so nice. I have to wait until the beginning of NOv. to go buy my material but you all are sure giving me lots of wonderful ideas. I am not at home until next week. but I will keep checking out the website and drooling over all the choices of fabric.

Pam not knowing the pattern I think you did wonderfully getting the dark to light values as recommended and the colors are great! I say this is a great combo.

I have never frozen brownies uh I dont think they last that long. I put a bag of halloween candy on the table. Granted they dont fill that bag like they used to. My dh will eat that entire bag within 24 hours. I keep saying doesnt your stomach hurt? yikes. If I want one I have to grab it before he sees it and put it in my sewing bag for later. Hiding my own candy before its not mine at all! this train lets vote to save a bench say just for candy and brownies and goodies ok? near my seat please.

Very cute quilt inspector.

GrammaMary 10-20-2012 04:00 AM

I'm going to try to keep up the best I can. I work Sun, Tues, and Thurs (at JoAnns) and babysit my youngest grandson, Cameron, Mon, Wed and Fri. That only leaves Sats free but seldom as today I'm taking my oldest granddaugter, Julia, to get a Day bed for her bedroom makeover and will probably end up helping her make a cover for it. Also 6 of my 7 grandchildren, my youngest daughter, one of my son-in laws, and my husband have birthdays between the middle of Oct and Christmas.
