I'll let the lizard know that you will be awaiting him. He says he's never been to NYC, and has heard the stories of midtown Manhattan at Christmas being so pretty. :)

Midtown at Christmas IS awesome! Have been there quite a few times!
Ok, Now I'm trying to figure out my centers. Hubby says I should do some sort of landscape one...yea right! NOT! I'm not THAT good!
I thought about maybe a pretty vase with some flowers in it, but not sure. The one that I have that is finishing up now is a hummingbird on a flower.
Decisions, decisions.

Ok, I have my inspiration for my center. I've been contemplating doing this for a long time now, so I'm thinking maybe now is the time.
Izy sent me this postcard and I think it's adorable. Always wanted to make a quilt like it.

Oh, thats a cool one Terri! Did you see the kitties I got to put on Steph's last round on the old IRR? I loved doing that!!! Come on...I want to see kitties playing all over your quilt! I'm thinking I'd like to do a more whimsical quilt style this time...with the great sense of humor here on the board...I think it would be really fun. So...I'm thinking!!

Klue...thanks sooo much for your explanation. I agree that all the ladies here will do a wonderful job. Again, this is a DON'T PANIC kind of thing. The tops all seem to speak once they get to you and it always seems to work out just right! There is of course tons of help here on the board too! Your LQS is a great resource for ideas as well. They love to help out on these!

Hey! Where is it????

Okay Terri - you've officially kept me from ever stepping onto the island of Guam. If one of those things came within 2 feet of me I'd have a new outlook on gun ownership.
And the postcard is fantastic! That would make an awesome center. Just a thought - what if you did it in Black & Whites and put just a splash of color (either the kitty, or a sun or something like that)?? Might be fun to see how others add to it!

He was about maybe 5 feet long. I stopped, put my hazards on so the cars would stop and let the little guy cross.
