    Thanks for the compliments ladies. Difergi - so glad you like it. Thanks for being such a wonderful partner.

    I agree that all the minis from this group are just wonderful - so creative.

    I don't know how to make the lil wire hangers. Would love to know how. I'm guessing it would entail bending/curving wire into shapes??..
    I bought my wire stand, they're on sale at Connectingthreads.com.
    My hubby also makes me lots of specialty hangers for my wall quilts, and quilts I give as gifts. He cuts shapes from wood, and then uses a dowel. I have stars, crosses, even mini coke bottles for my Coca Cola quilt. He also made bowling pins for a bowling quilt I made for a friend. He cuts out the shapes, and I paint them.

    I love the beach kitty! its so Happy!!! ("Because I'm Happy" sing along with me) he brings a smile to my face and will earn a place on the kitchen wall next to my cow with a cat and a snake in sombreros with margaritas in their hand.. a wild wall to be sure but you can not wake up and not be Happy with those kinda things around you. Trust me, try it and see.. make a silly wild wall of quilty things and you know you will be smiling. These are great little adventures. I might venture into applique next month depending on my partners wishes. Some are more conservative than others which is ok and some are a bit more open to goofy things. I am sure I could make both!

    I just bent the wire, but I think my wire is too thin. I think a wire hanger bent would work. I am just playing. Forgot my little for JB again today so I just called DH and he is bringing it to me! It will go out yet today. Can't wait to see mine, as well.
