    Precious memories. My great nephew built himself a 'man cave' in the sewing room today. Used a "Hello Kitty" throw, hooked it over the closet knob, over a sofa table, pulled a chair up to extend it and block the entrance from unwanted intruders - meaning me and his uncle.

    I should have taken a picture, but didn't think of it. Am still chuckling over "Hello Kitty" throw forming the roof of his "man cave"!

    By the way, he 'designed' his first quilt today - the old faithful '4 patch' x 4. It's for his bird. Of course, all the designing was done outside his Man Cave.

    Lovely quilts!!!! :shock: I especially like the first one! How about posting a pic of it so we can see it in all its glory? 8-) It sure looks like a fun day for your sons!!! I remember my brother and I attaching blankets to the fence and having a long tent. We would play in it for days on end! Thanks for bringing back a wonderful memory!! :wink: It's also fantastic to see that there are actually children who like to use their imaginations and not just their thumbs (i.e. playing video games all day long)!!! :D
