Pam, I did notice Bugs... He looks like a good doggie and great friend.
Jeanie, I got stalled out on Allietare because it just seemed so endless. I have mine upstairs at my Singer 301 and will work on it when I get annoyed with hubby (or what he's watching on TV), and need to retreat upstairs for some alone time. Eventually I will get it done. I'd like to give it to my son and his wife as a wedding present.
I still have the Grand Illusion mystery quilt from last year sitting around unquilted. For shame, for shame...
