Well my chair project went bad, had machine issues, the machine didn't like the heavy duty outdoor thread. Then after finishing the prototype and putting it on the chair it was too large. It would have been nice had I had measurements instead of trial and error. The owner of the chairs told me to make them 48" long, WRONG! ended up being 44". I ran out of thread after starting #3 out of 6. So I cleaned up the mess from the serger and put away that project. Now Im off to start on the Colts quilt. Lets hope things go better...

Very pretty, Raggiemom.
DogHouseMom, Yes, Peotone is a nice town. I like it a lot. Where do you live? What a bummer on the letters! That really sounds like one of my tricks. How's your lady coming--can't wait to see her.

Got the letters re-traced and cut.
Anyone want to guess what it is going to say?? I've got them scrambled in the pic below.
A few hints are necessary.
There is a punctuation mark missing from this picture ... it is an apostrophe.
There is no L in the saying.
The uppercase I looks like a lower case l.
Remember ... this is a quilt for a Chemo patient.
Any guesses?

I live in Braceville which is way over next to I55 ... just south of Wilmington.
The lady is finished ... a pic of her sewn to the top is on page two of this thread. I'm getting ready (or fixin to for the southerners) to adhere the words now.
PokerDiva ... love the quilt top!! I also love Chairjogger's name and wish I had thought of that one instead of DogHouseMom

Yea! I met my goal. All of the pieces are cut out even the fussy cut outer borders. I have also marked the 200 squares that will be used to make flying geese. Now, I am going to relax as I work on hand sewing my applique squares for another project. Tomorrow, I can start sewing on my quilt. It will be so much easier with everything ready for sewing.
