    It sounds like everyone is busy with life! I chuckled at the tattoo 'd bride, everyone around here seems to have them, I'm not that fond of needles and being poked anytime let alone pay someone to do it. I would rather buy fabric and hide it. I think I will begin my next DQ-so that is how some of you are done so early in the month to send! I have never, ever made a crazy quilt patchwork but I have a book somewhere on them, this will be fun! Somewhere between Iowa and Alaska two doll quilts are passing in the mail, this sure is a fun place.

    So, are we definitely doing a "Crazy Patchwork Doll Quilt" for May 2013? If so, I'd like to get started cuz I sew slow and am friends with "Rip It!" Is there a place where all the 2013 months' themes are shown?

    lol about half way through it I thought Your insane. what the heck were you thinking? well like I have stated you have to live in this wacked out brain to go oh ok! I like what I came up with. told you my first thought was to make a nut house and put your house numbers on it but then thought you might come bop me on my head like thanks a lot lady! was going to add flowers lol.. so now you know what I didnt do.. you can wonder what the heck did I do.. spring has sprung in a nutshell.

    now how to twist a crazy quilt.. with a theme... ah ha.. wondering already if I am silly enough to do another throw down? any twist ideas out there???? Krystyna is groaning now. Brat she says.. go with the flow.. ME? is she talking to me? not likely sugarpie not likely. hey where is the photo of your wedding dress? are you wearing pastels? colors?

    and no tatoos for me either my nephew is a tatoo artist. he does amazing tatoos. he says Auntie Linda! I will give you any tatoo you want for free. I want .. nothing but thank you. come on Auntie Linda just one? my son gets them and I want to choke my nephew. NO MORE. it better stay under a shirt level kid or your in big time trouble.. no one listens to this old chicken. here is a pic of the last tatoo he did its lovely croak be thankful your daughter in law doesnt have these. I had to actually write him and say wow those are ..colorful! always try to be nice right?

    I just received my doll quilt from AlaskaAlice and I LOVE it! She also sent a pin cushion and the cutest little notebook that she made a cover for that I can't wait to make sketches in! Its going straight in my purse! I will pm her and thank her, and will post pictures soon!
    Oh my, those tattoos they hurt me! Oh I couldn't do it! My brother has the number "4" tattooed on his left arm from the wrist to his elbow, all different colors, different sizes, and different shapes, but ALL the number 4. One day I was sitting there looking at his arm-and I'm sure a quizzical look on my face and he said "so, do you like my four arm?" Get it? I thought boy what some people will do for a laugh! Haha-true story.
