JennR8R- So professional! Great looking neutral fabric. You gave me an idea of what to use. Did it use up much of the two yards?

I used most of the two yards. I might even have enough left over of this fabric to use it for the back. Score!

Well, I am back. I could not figure out why I was not getting messages for this thread and several others for about a week, then DUH, I cleaned out my junk mail box and there you were! Why my QuiltingBoard Threads started going to junk all of a sudden is beyond me.

Happy Birthday all your June gals. Sorry I missed your "day" but like someone else said.... this is your birthday month. Celebrate till the cows come home! Which is before dark! Tee-Hee-Hee! Best wishes.

My prize arrived today. Who knew I loved chickens? They are going in the quilt I am making tomorrow. Thanks Barb!

Well, not so good news on the home front. My mother-in-law lives with us and last week she had a growth removed from her upper gum (where a wisdom tooth would be). Pathology came back. Invasive squamous cell carcinoma. We will be off to UC San Francisco next week. The cancer was in all the tissue removed, not just the tumor. My MIL is trying to be positive, but she is real with me. We had a good talk this morning. I told her we are all in this together.

So sorry your MIL got that diagnosis, Hav4. She is blessed to be there living with you. What a scary place to get cancer! Prayers for her to beat it.

Same for our Jaba.

Yes IceLeopard.... these will be used for a border. But we are all making a lap quilt. The lap quilt that I am making measures 51 x 68. Not sure how you would change the size. But I don't think the border is the place to do it. Maybe the inside of the quilt.

I am sure I have everyone confused now.
