No one else gets it! I have really thick hair, so it would take an extra hour (at least!) to dry it. No thank you!

I was in Uganda East Africa for a very good friends wedding. Was there for 3 weeks and it was a blast.
Here are some update pics of my new quilt blocks of the Royal Oriental Medallions, and Pic of the one of my Feb swapper - Scrapper. Its from the "Neighborhood Quilt Collection" from Anita Goodesign. Really cute houses. This is the Wonker houses.
Working on a second block called, " O,Shays thatch cottage".
All the best

Roberto, what is the little sweeties name that you are holding? I have always wanted to go to Africa - hopefully someday! Do you do your own quilting in addition to those beautiful embroidered blocks.?

Roberto darling my hair is almost like yours lol ok I have some hair but I put it up in a dish towel after I wash it and 15 minutes later its bone dry. abeit a tiny bit.. ruffled looking but hey its only hair. and Kelly I will be one of those ladies in the summer hanging my self out the window for air any air.. I don't like the heat much either. I find I am weather intolerant these days wish I was rich.. I could be a snow bunny. Go to AZ for the winter come back here for spring and fall and live in CA for summer in the woods. Yup.. freely admit I am a weather weenie!
I love your rabbit blocks Roberto. I would think with a few little easter eggs what a wonderful wall hanging that would be.. I think that is one special quilt
I love the holidays. They are oh so special to me and everything I see I put into what season or what holiday could I decorate with that? sigh.. and I see a whole lot of fabric here on the qb! my mind in overdrive!

Roberto, what a gorgeous bunny quilt! What fabric did you use for the bunnies? I love the texture-they look so soft!
We finally have a baby in the family My nephew and his wife have been trying for 13 yrs and we finally have our miracle baby, a little girl named Harper. I was never interested in baby quilts before and now I can't get enough of them and have so many ideas running through my mind! I can't wait until she is old enough for an I Spy Quilt LOL!
Your work is just so fabulous, as usual Thanks for posting. It's a joy to look at your work

It's called Soft and Comfy got it a joann's much like minky fabric, they come in every colors, I did a panda blanket and used the black and white, did a baby duck blanket with yellow etc. You have to but a water saluable film over the fabric before you applique. But it makes a great presentation.
Have fun and post some pics when you do one.
Always great to see other Ideas.
