Thank you for your kind words Cogito. I had some fun quilting that little one.

Okay! Okay! I opened the candy to see if it was "movie worthy", Lara and Anna. Definitey is and the box is taped shut now! I started to spread some of it out by the quilt but was afraid you would think it was a present from the Peach! (He is a good boy and wouldn't do that!) What great quilts are coming in...I love all of them. I wish I had gotten in this swap with the 1st one..I have an idea...if everyone made me a little quilt I would have a stack of them, too. What do you think???? Sounds like a plan to me. LOL

CrazyQuiltRobin...how are you doing? Are you about ready to join us again? Miss you terribly. Sending hugs and warm wishes.

Well, I learned the word as uff dah back home in "Minnysoda", (DH confirms that's how it is spelled in that state) but oof dah works just fine. It is a general interjection used for almost any purpose--golly, wow, whew, jeez, and other words not fit to print. Often used when completing a difficult task. Also, as Krystyna said some number of posts back, the name of a game. Also the name of a rock band in the Twin Cities.I am tapping my toes waiting for the mail carrier, because my quilt ffom mamaskeeto should be coming. Will post pic later. Can't sew--my eyes are still dilated.

My goodness such beautiful quilts have come in since the last time I posted. I have been hand quilting a quilt for my cousin. Needs to be done by the 6th. My hands are so sore and a bit swollen so decided to take a break. Uff da is the way my Gramma Sammy said it, with one hand on her hip and the other mopping the sweat off her forhead after rolling out a batch of lefsa or frying her huge raised donuts. As a child always to it to mean: Oh, my sore aching back or thank God that's done. What wonderful memories.

The mail came! Kathy, it is beautiful. For the rest of you, the pictures may not show how accurate the piecing is.

Here's the quilt



And the extra goodies



and the way cool fabric on the back



Kathy, thank you so much. Krystyna, she's a keeper. We can't let her get away.

Jarenie, I can't tell you how many times I have done that in the past! I am trying to do better at that.
thanks everyone for posting photos of the back and label.
