This is a gift I'm working on, for my mother...which is due to be ready by sunday..I hope!!! So this week during the evening hours i need to get this quilted! It's called tulip tango from McCalls may 2008 quick quilts. Sure hope she likes it ..should go nice on her table in her country home! I can't believe that I haven't been quilting lately...so doing this small project has helped inspire me again! I'll post the finished project by the end of this week. I can't wait to start quilting it!

I like yours better than the one in the book. You did an excellent job. She will love it I just know it. Good work.

Did you see the one called "What's all the flap? I SOOOOOO have to make that one.

Thanks everybody, I like applique ...it sure is prettier in real life than in my picture. But the one in the magazine is gorgous..I just didn't have the fabric or don't know how to put fabric together..ha..oh well..I get to work on it tonight!
C2, yes, that "what's all the flap" is really cool...I'm prone to bright colors, they always make me smile. Let me know when you start work on yours!

I think you put your fabrics together just fine Catherine. You ca be very proud of this piece. :)

Catherine 05-06-2008 02:52 PM

thank you.....everything except that purple...my fondness for brights got the best of me..my signature I suppose...ha...it doesn't really look to out of place now that I'm starting to quilt it.!!! ha

I deffinatly will let you know whe I start to work on "Whats all the Flap" But I still like yours better than the one in the book, your fabrics are prettier and you perfected the pattern.

That is so pretty! Homemade is always so much better than something you could buy for her. She'll love it.
