Boom 17 - TOPAZ

Nah, she's too busy being indecisive!
I'm the slow one in the group.... too much work, not enough time to get to the post office. I don't see everyone's fabrics in the gallery so that means either folks haven't decided or they are counting on Janice, the fearless leader, to take pics and post for them. Notice that Janice doesn't have a fabric posted in the gallery..... She's too busy sending emails and updating the gallery :-)

That gap between 9 months & 15 yrs old goes by fast. Rock & hold as much as you can, but you already know that. I have a great granddaughter turning 1 next week & I'm sure I just made her a quilt! It was a year ago! Mine are from 5 yrs old to 27. 12 of them. I tell them all they are my favorites! Just hearing them say my name lowers my BP.
Can't wait for the ballerina fabric! I only have 2 granddaughters and 10 grandsons, so plenty of boy antics around here! I love frilly.

We only have five grands. My second dd lives in Wisconsin and has a boy and girl 23 and 20. I'm sure I see my 20 year old granddaughter more the I see her brother. She will soon be a junior at Friends University in Wichita. Third dd lives about 20 minutes away and I am lucky enough to see them quite often. Oldest and youngest are girls almost 13, 9, and 6

I love hearing about and seeing pictures of all your grands they are all awesome.
Me my grands are all animals currently they are a snake (ball python) a hedgehog, a quarter horse a shepherd/wolf mix a munchkin cat and a huge orange tabby cat. In the past there has also been a western hog nose snake, rats, chinchilla, a variety of reptiles and frogs. I feel like I can call them grands as I have made blankets, beds, aquarium covers and even a halloween costume for the horse. hahaha
Janice, just too many fabrics to choose from. [ATTACH=CONFIG]555272[/ATTACH]

I've got two grands (4 and 2) that I hope to addict to quilting soon. They love the quilts I have but they are too young for me to work on them while they are here. So I play with them instead. Once the two year old doesn't need as much watching, I'll start hand piecing in front of them as I "supervise" their painting or drawing or kazooing or doll housing, etc.... Such a joy being a grandmother! I didn't realize it would be this much fun!

I finally made here. LOL I've been sort of busy trying to get things rearranged so I can sew easier. Tomorrow we will be going to the post office so I will be able to send Janice my tracking #. I have 4 grand children that I don't get to see much but when I do we have all sorts of fun. I can hardly wait to see the newest one which is about 6 months old, he is in Sweden right now but they will be coming in Sept so I'm excited to see him. I get to Skype with them tomorrow too so I get to see him a bit but in person will be soooooo much more fun.
