Teeny Tiny Happy Dance
I finally backed and birthed the "Poly-Denim 9 Patch" I started ooooooh,
let's just say aways back. It's been sittin there gatherin' dust because I couldn't find a backing wide enough that I liked. Let's just say I found one finally which wasn't wide enough but I snipped and fudged and trimmed and it's now completed. I don't like it *that* much or as much as I thought I would but it'll make a nice picnic rug to have in the back of the car. -- Sharon from Melbourne Australia Queen of Down Under http://www.geocities.com/shazrules/craft.html ********************** |

floor looking pretty. I really do have to update that website.

eeeeeek, has been too long since i perused all your quilts.
love the your newly finished denim picnic rug, well done!! i got a question bout the shape on each unit of a whirlygig.... are they sorta like skewed applecores? its kinda hard to tell from the lighting on the pix. i cant imagine doing all those by hand, eeeeek. ok, maybe if i used interfacing to back them, then joined them by whip stitching them like i've done with EPP. i admire your perseverence to finish all those wee 'gigs', goodness me, your dh is one lucky guy. now then, whats the next project? lol. lost over the ocean somewhere -- http://community.webshots.com/user/nzlstar real reply is san-fran at ihug dot co dot nz nzlstar on yahoo msg'r "Sharon Harper" wrote...

LOL you give me too much credit Jeanne! The individual shapes are sort of
like a stretched out S- or maybe a skewed applecore would do it. I tried the whipstitching part and it was more trouble than it was worth. He keeps hinting at me that it would be a beautiful quilt once it was finished! I'll get there eventually! The next project? either a bento box christmas quilt or 2 quilts for the DDs or yikes !

Good for you! I looked at your site. Wow are you ever brave. The
whirlygigs. I don't think I would ever attempt that one. You do very nice work but if I had to pick my favorite so far would be the Aunt Marie's Garden or the baby blazing star.

It's a neat quilt, and I'm sure it's even better in its finished form.
