The quilt made from the funny, funky chickens is very hilarious. The Maxine panels are hilarious. There are lots of very funny Christmas embroidery Santas that would make good blocks. A lot of funny get well greeting cards could be made into appliqued blocks. I think good taste wouldn't be as important as good belly laughs.

A quilt using the vegetable ladies would be fun. If you can find the fabric.

I love this and it is going to be my next quilt. I try to donate one to our local hospital for their cancer auction. I think this will be the perfect fit. Made me laugh. I might even make one and donate it to the oncology center that just opened.
