    You could make an appliqué. of a convict in prison stripes
    This would be cool! But you don't have to. This is for fun. I can see those poor men sewn down on a quilt block. :lol: :lol: Arms & legs going everywhere. :lol: :lol: You're so funny!!

    Thank you for the reminder. I told my dear husband I was going to make it. We even pulled out the picture of the car we owned when we got married. Now I just have to get the block done. I think I will start this on Thursday . It is my Birthday and John said I get to do anything I want. LOL. Sounds like a good day. Also will try and get it done by Sunday on our 40th wedding anniversary and give it to him as a special gift.
    Hugs

    Hey Thanks for the reminder. I have been sewing caddies like crazy. I will get on it. I think something different would do me good. Did we decide on a size? I am thinking 12" finished.
