Sadly so do I :) :) I remember the routine every time I hear the song!! I believe he did a back flip in that one and I thought it was so cool!!

Cheers!

I love it!! it should be dark as fireworks are at night!

I put a thin strip of "house" between the windows and the roof and I think I like it better now. I've got three done like that and yeah, they're better. Maybe they'd look funny if they were lighter since it is nighttime.

This is so much fun, I'm really glad I joined. I'm making 7 of each because I want to keep one for myself. Then I'll add them to the ones I get back. I want to make at least a couch throw size. Since I also paint there's no room on my walls for quilted art. I can't wait until the everyone starts posting pictures.

Here's the ones I'm sending minus the three that aren't done yet. Nope, I took the pix off after I got all of them done.
