While I hate to commit to something and not be able to follow through, I am asking for mercy and forgiveness. However, I do feel that I must "pay" you something so I will be placing some festive reds, whites, and blues in the mail to you. In light of the upcoming holiday and since I was making a patriotic star, I thought you might like to know that because of "fullness" (think C) in the center of my block I will be making another one just like the first one and wearing them tied with a string to my bosom. I think my fellow festive July 4th party-goers will enjoy my new bikini bathing suit top...
With warmest regards,
quiltyfeelings
p.s. any ideas for a paper-pieced star pattern that could accomodate the lower portion required for a "bikini bottom?"
:)




sorry.
that is just too funny! this board always cheers me up and makes me laugh! it would be nice to see pics (not necessarily modeled - haha)
Oh, don't give up, it took me 9 hours to make mine, but I got er done..The tute is fantastic. So you may be able to make your bikini bottom by following the tute. LOL LOL Good Luck and we should expect pics, but NAHHHH that's ok....
