Thimbles with hearts because quilters are all heart :wink:

That is so cute. I love it.

:oops: :lol: My brain is not functioning tonight. I clicked because it said pictures and didn't really read the title. Then I'm setting here thinking, "What cute English Bobby hats!" Maybe I should go to bed.

Well now that you mention it. LMAO!!!!

That will be a really unique quilt. Thanks for sharing.

Half the fun of viewing a quilt is the interpretation others have of it. The first thing I saw was the thimbles, but mention the English bobby hats..yup, that works, too. Either way, it's a very cute quilt.

Awesome!!! I love them :D :D :D

Bevanger 11-18-2009 05:11 AM

how cute. i love it

sbeddingfield 11-18-2009 05:16 AM

I know they are thinbles but my 2 and 1/2 year old granddaughter doesn't even know what a thimble is (she will before the end of the day) so she now wants all of your heart hats.
This is a precious idea for a quilt. I love it.
Blessings,

Cute thimbles! :D

Maybe if English bobbies wore hats like that, they'd be a bit less grumpy on the beat! :shock: :lol:

Thats a good idea, I'll put this on my to do list :mrgreen: Yes, I draw most of my own patterns.

I'm in full blown Christmas mode over here, so I'm thinking milk and cookies. A few chocolate chip cookies on a plate with a glass or carton of milk next to it. It could become a whole Christmas applique sampler. Milk and cookies, a present, a candy cane, Santa face, etc.

Wow! I'm great at ideas when I don't have to do any of the work!! :D

marsye 11-19-2009 04:43 AM

Thats also a great idea! But for me its way too late for Christmas.....I'm working on Valentines by now. :wink:

Over-achiever! :shock: :lol:

Lisa_wanna_b_quilter 11-19-2009 07:57 AM

Valentine's Day ---- conversation hearts, of course! All pastel colors with those silly sayings on them. Don't forget to add some modern ones like "PM me" and "TTYL".

Next you can do Easter -- the bunny sampler -- eggs, bunnies, carrots, lambs, etc. and for the religious folks do one with a cross, a sunrise....

Oh wait! I forgot President's Day!! You can do Lincoln and Washington faces!

OK, I may be going overboard but the idea part is fun.

mimee4 11-19-2009 12:04 PM

I have collected a few thimbles. Great choice for a quilt pattern.

Fox 11-19-2009 11:12 PM

Lisa_wanna_b_quilter...I have to give up guessing. At this time in the morning the guessing is getting way off the subject! So what does "PM Me" and "TTYL" mean?

Lisa_wanna_b_quilter 11-20-2009 04:25 AM

Fox -- PM me = private message me TTYL = talk to you later

I live with teenagers so I know all that fancy talk!

Ninnie 11-20-2009 04:51 AM

Cute!!

I love your Thimble quilt. It's especially meaningful because I have been collecting thimbles for about 30 years. I have in excess of 500 from all over the world. I may have to make your quilt. You said you drew the pattern. What size are your blocks? They look to be about 12 inches. Is that right?

WOW!! 500!!! The blocks are 5 1/2". You can PM if you like.

kd124 11-20-2009 10:22 AM

They are so cute. I am sure thimble people will want them. Sorry, I too thought hats at first! I bring up several posts, then go through them. When I got to yours, I didn't read before looking at the blocks. After reading, I immediately saw the thimbles. Like I have said, I love your appliques.

Skeat 11-30-2009 02:59 PM

This is really a great quilt in the making...and, I did not think 'hat'...:)LOL But, that was funny!LOL Is this your own pattern??If so...awesome and fresh idea!! Keep it up!:)Skeat...who thinks this is awesome already!

CrystalKicks 11-30-2009 04:38 PM
