Yeah, but Rhonda, not all of us (meaning me) are as talented as you are!!
:-P
That is all I want to do is pass it on! But your quilting is nothing to sneeze at!! You do beautiful work!

Naw, that was just a scrap that the horses snorted in! LOL And I understand about the worry wart thing. Don't we all agonize over the reaction our quilts will get, when if we were REALLY honest with ourselves we know that they will definitely be loved no matter what? I'm guilty! Mainly because I feel that I'm the impostor in this group of wonderful quilters!
Speaking of quilts.. (like what else would we talk about in here). I'm going to be sending mine tomorrow.. or Wed at the latest.. depends if I can get all my errands/running around like a chicken with my head cut off done! My quilt will be going to... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _. (yes, this is hangman). :lol: :lol:

GaiGai -- I got your quilt to day and you obviously don't know the meaning of the word "imposter". I am completely humbled after seeing your workmanship. Maybe I need a refresher course in Quilting 101. (BTW - pix of your DQ will be posted soon.)

SANDPAT....it is here!!!
I am so sorry to make you worry about the delivery. We had Thanksgiving with the family on Sat. so it messed up all of my free time for the weekend... LOL!!! I am just now getting on the net....
I was so excited. I did not know what the package was. I kept telling hubby I hadn't ordered anything off eBay....can't even tell you if it came Fri or Sat.....
Well, as soon as I realized I had a "squishy" it hit me. I ripped in and was so shocked. I have never seen anything like it! I spent oodles of time analyzing how it was made and I am just baffled that anyone can do it!
It is a santa with an overlay of thin material quilted on top of the whole thing. And the quilting is REMARKABLE....it is all little holly leaves. Santa even has a twinkle in his eye!!
The family all took time to pass it around and oooh and aaah over it.
Sandpat did a great job and I am thrilled with my Santa. I am sure it will be a Christmas tradition here. She has been dying to get her pix posted and her camera was on the blink before she shipped. I will post a pix tomorrow since it is about Midnight here now and I'm not sure I have the brain power left to do it before sleeping....

I'm having trouble.I'm haveing a hard time with this doll quilt I'm making for Chirstmas. First I used a iron on batting that someone gave me. Well half way threw my hand quilting it came apart on me so I had to go back and pin. Now I 'm on the boarders and the quilt has puckers all over it. I jusrt want to throw it out now and start over.As a matter of fact I am starting over. Give this one to my dogs.
