It's on my blog(below in my signature) if you want to go looksee. I would post it here but don't want to ruin it for sharon if she happens to visit the board before looking under the zipper.

I LOVE the crazy quilt, LisaLisa. It's true--you can't put too much on a crazy quilt! Absolutely adorable! I cut labels out of clothes in my closet--found several brand new items, I think, that I've never worn. Most of my labels are Alfred Dunner, haha. From Farm & Fleet--that's where the cows shop! It's really hard to cut a lot of the labels out to leave anything around them. What are you going to use these for again, Krystyna? I tried to leave as much room as possible. The worst ones to cut off are in sweaters; only ruined one, haha. Probably too little for me now anyway and it's a Christmas sweater. I REALLY need to clean out my closet. I must have clothes going back at least 30 years in there. Never have been much of a shopper but I have accumulated too much for that one closet. I have an idea for my June mini. Not sure if I can make it work. Had another idea but can't find the picture now. Elisabrat, I let my DH have his say and the quieter I get, the more he knows I don't agree with him but like you, I don't think it's worth fighting over. My peace of mind is a LOT more important to me than WHO is right. If I'm right and I know it, I just won't say a thing and that ends it! (Sooner or later--once in a great while he will later admit I was right but I already knew that, lol!) A year from now it won't make any difference anyway.

LisaLisa - i looked at your blog and all the details in your little quilt are incredible - you did a great, personalized crazy quit! Love the little zipper surprise!

I missed out on / and or forgot what your soon to be refurbished clothing label collection was for too Krystyna. What kind are you looking for? I am assuming NOT the fabric care labels.

"Mr. Peach" - what a cute name for an adorable marmalade kitty Sharon!

I had to go look! It is an adorable little frog! I have been playing with that quilt ever since I got my hands on it! I love it! I am going to take it over to show my mother in a few minutes.

Bumble glad you like Mr. Peach's name...I found him in the park when he was about 4-5 wks old and I thought he was a girl and I named her Peach because that is what color "she is"...when we went to the vet to check her to make sure she was without worms, bugs, etc. My vet, Dr.Cameron, said "Sharon, I think Ms.Peach is Mr. Peach!"...So he got a longer name he is Mr. Fred C. Peach...the "C" is for "cat". He will be 6 yrs old this summer and he has me totally trained. I am head over heels in love with him.

Well I went to Joann's today to get some more stuff to get to add to the crazy quilt. So I will not be remaking one. I will be mailing it out by the end of the week.

I will let you know when it gets mailed.
