Sounds like a fun project! Big Buffett fan here. I can't wait to see what you come up with.
|
sorry guys - I was impatient and it ended up posting 3x
grrrrrr |
I haven't tried one. Share yours with us. I can't wait to see it.

SO cool, hope to see a posting. I visited a cousin who had surf boards and a Woodie on her showercurtain and I called the bathroom, Margaritaville! Just had a beach/tropical feel. Can't wait to see your quilt. Lucky Dad.
Blessings, Ruth |
Thanks everyone.
I sketched up some ideas last night. Waiting for my ordered fabric so I can get going on it!! |
Put an extra pocket that says something like "Happy Father's Day 2010 ENJOY" on the outside of the quillow pocket, make it just the right size to put a Jimmy Buffet CD in.

So I've got the margarita, the lost shaker of salt, and the woman to blame! And of course the parrots, palm trees - and I think I want to get some "water" fabric. Problem is - I have to tell the "story" on the front of the pillow. And I have no idea what pattern I'm going to use. Or what I'm going to use for the blanket part. I bought a beautiful batik for 50% off that I was thinking of ....... |

Sure the one I have on order has kind of a brown wicker back round with different kinds of drinks on it. If yours is different I be interested to see it!

Actually, I have do have a collection of fabrics intended just for a Buffett quilt...tropical prints, a flip-flop fabric, a fabric with cheeseburgers, clocks (it is 5 o'clock somewhere!), salt and pepper shakers, fabric with drinks on them (I hope one of them is a margarita!), guitars. It's just in a holding pattern along with other planned quilts.
