Does anyone else out there have a problem typing words like:
quite, quiet, quit, quarter, etc? Every time I try I have to go back and correct them becaust they come out Q-U-I-L-T!!!
Your commitment to making the most of your daughter's school experiences is laudable! The bags are cute and the memories will be many.
Now, I'm really loving the quilt in your avatar...would you mind sharing the name of the pattern...Please? Have you posted a full size photo of this quilt in another thread? I'm quilt/quite taken with this one...lol...and might be able to duplicate with a bigger photo but it would be much easier to cut all those fabs with some orderly instructions, I'm sure!

Now, about my avey, there's a big picture on UFO challenge of the Month thread on page 33, 34, or 35, somewhere around in there. There's been so many people ask me for the pattern that I'm thinking about doing a tutorial toward the end of this month or the first part of next. However, if you want to start on one right away just pm me and I'll send the measurements that I use. The one problem is that I was just stash busting and have no idea how much fabric I used--all I know are the cuts.

My DD would come home and say," We're having a party. I told the Teacher that you would take care of it." :shock: :shock: :shock: And I always did. :roll:
Love the bags. I always thought the moms that gave us parties were so special. You are too.

Well, the kids sure love them and it's not too expensive. I usually would buy the fabric "after season" for the next time. A lot of times I could get it for 75 cents a yard. I think I have enough for the holidays for one more year and then they don't have them any more anyway. I've enjoyed doing it as much as the kids have enjoyed receiving them.
