Bertie loved the musical!!!! Great quilt Cheesehead and Chasezzz.

Love the circle quilt. I haven't started the one yet for my partner, but plan on getting with it for the week end. I think I will cut out enough for 2 of them. I will make mine later. I always want to keep the quilt,so this way I will have one for myself.

Lynnie25 06-19-2013 06:28 PM

Cheesehead what a great circle quilt for chasezzz, love it.

Grandma Di 06-19-2013 06:33 PM

Well I've only about 12" of binding to sew up and then it goes in the mail. That feels so good. I wish I could do next months quilt but to many family things going on.

Lynnie25, Chasezzz made the circle quilt for me, I just want her to get the credit for her creation!

Well that would be my way of thinking! But I didn't wanna judge you ya know, to each his own :D
Little relieved to know though that you weren't having spitting contests in the LR. Lol.

Perhaps if we had a spitoon ....

Bertie, I dunno. This board can be a mystery. You can always try asking PatriceJ.

BuzzinBumble 06-20-2013 08:10 AM

Chasezzz how cool is that - a wonderful round quilt!

Mamaskeeto 06-20-2013 11:30 AM

BuzzinBumble 06-21-2013 10:27 AM

Ooftah is right! Ooftah Mag! Sharon that is the cutest patriotic kitty sampler! So clever! did you design it too?Lyn, that is amazing! I've never seen anyone do the states like that. So totally patriotic and cool!

Krystyna 06-21-2013 10:33 AM

Hold the OOFDAH!!!! Make that a triple OOFDAH!
I didn't see the kitty part of it at first. For some reason only the yoyo photo was showing.
The flag hanging off kitty's tail is toooooooo tooooo tooooo cute!
So make that a CARAMBAOOFDAH!

Krystyna 06-21-2013 10:36 AM

Seriously ... we should have an OOFDAH month.
OK. August will be it. Sender's choice of OOFDAH.:p

Should get it early next week, we don't have weekend delivery. I am so glad you like the little quilt. I am going to do a bigger version for myself and put a button on each state I have received a Dolls Quilt from. It was so much fun to do.

Lynnie25 06-21-2013 02:18 PM

OOFDAH, not a word we use here in Aus land, might have to do some research :)

Vanogay 06-21-2013 02:21 PM

Lynnie23, you and I can be partners - I know your quilts and they are OOFDAH. No research needed!!

Annaquilts 06-21-2013 04:30 PM

Thank you for posting the pictures and as everyone can see it is stunning and has the most adorable back and label also. I LOVE it!

Ladies, I need two angels please. Gaiatender did not receive quilts for April OR May!!! Personally I think this is horrible and I applaud this kind and gentle soul for signing up yet again. Can anyone help? I think she deserves a DQ shower!!!

skaduzy 06-21-2013 04:46 PM

What a work of art from Lynnie25! I love it and also the one with the kitty with the flag on his tail.
What great ideas!

Lynnie25 - I just retrieved a package from the mailbox from you ... I think it's ... FABRIC LABELS!!!!! Thank you!!!

So ... what DO you say instead of OOFDAH?

In keeping with the weird stew of languages in our household, my son and I had our own made up words that are the equivalent of OOFDAH ... I think this started when I told him about when I worked for National Lampoon and worked on the text of a Spanish language action comic strip spoof in which someone shouted CRAJOLA! This resulted in our own exclamations - Oofka! Och! Carambadah! and Ochdemana (since we don't have a tilda on the QB, pronounced ochdemanya).

So ... you'll all have to help me figure out a way to word the sign up so Admin doesn't bounce me off the board. :p

I think Gaiatender needs a little Aussie quilt, I will be her April or May partner. Pming you Krystyna

Hahahaha Vanogay, is that a subtle enough hint ????

BuzzinBumble 06-21-2013 07:40 PM

Linda that is a gorgeous quilt you made for gaiatender! The cross stitch center is sooooo darling! And what is that beautiful white fabric around the border? Made up for the no show partners big time! Gaiatender you are a trooper to stick with it!

Krystyna, i don't think the QB Admin could object to Oofdah. ...Could they? It's an innocent expression and just means something along the lines of "My goodness!"
Lyn, the expression is not used a whole lot in America, except in areas with a lot of people who have Scandinavian roots. But it is fun to say.

Krystyna, That is so cool that you worked for National Lampoon. See what I mean about you having led such an interesting life? Well guess what you intriguing girl you... I just finished your quilt at 11:00 tonight. If I can get my act together in the morning, find a good box, etc, I'll trot on over to the post office and drop it off.

BertieD 06-22-2013 05:17 AM

I could make a quilt for Gaiatender. I'm a Rescue Angel, haha.

Bertie your quilt is out for delivery today! What time do you get your mail?
I typed a one page letter to Bertie and when I went to print there was a weird glitch and my Word 2010 program shut down. For the first time in 10 years it didnt save the draft...don't know why. Word is usually so good about it. So, I thought it more important to get it in the mail as promised and it is arriving sans note. My DH, DS and I are leaving for a state BBQ cook off here soon so will not see any QB postings till tonight. We are celebrating our youngest child's 24th B day. Ughhh I feel old.
Hope you like what I sent Bertie!

luvstoquilt 06-22-2013 05:47 AM

Tara, I didn't design it. Lisalisa sent me the pattern with my "traveling smiles joy filled quilt"...now visiting our Robin. I wasn't sure I would ever get it done...it was definitely trying my patience! Krystyna the YoYo's on the back are just printed on the fabric!

Now someone please explain the meaning of OOFDAH!

Love the map of the USA...that is fabulous!

Krystyna, I will send Gaiatender a little quilt but it will be a while before I can send it. I love the idea of a "mini-quilt" shower for her since she has had 2 duds in a row. I hope those ladies are no longer allowed to join us!
