The placemat has been sent to my brother. I miss it already; isn't that the problem with giving away creations? Probably will end up making some for myself and my family.
Sneek Peek (kind of): Now I'm working on a landscape quilt for my dad. I took a picture of his barnyard and found fabrics and have everything cut up and placed. Next is the quilting and fabric painting. Soooo excited to see the result! It's hard to think of something to give an eighty-something non-techy father. I think he'll be really surprised!
