Gee - where has the week gone!!! Or should I say week and a half?
Phew - party partied...check.
Quilt completed....mmmm... not quite check.
BUT I have started to get the hang of this wonky business...
My wonky blocks got much better as I got going and a little less constrained.
The top finished but lacking something to make it "zing" and personal...
Yippee!!! Sam I Am added exactly the touch this quilt needed for my own "Sam I Am".
My own Sam is so not able to be fitted into any boxes, so not straight and linear, and has a certain quirkiness to him.
This quilt fits my "Sam I am".
And he loved it when he saw it on the night of the party. The backing is still in a state of construction as I had a sudden WOW moment.... watch this space.
Must show you the cakes.....
Doesn't Sam's cake even look like a Suess cake? We are lucky we have an Aunty Louise who is a fab cake creater:)
And where was I for a good part of the evening when I wasn't M.C. for the evening...
And my chosen alter ego for evening of Cheryl West from "Outrageous Fortunes" (a NZ TV programme) went down soooooo well....right from the start when I broke a bottle - totally unplanned of course!!!!
RIght, another quilt to construct awaits and I really do need to try to get this backing finished.
Ciao,
Hi Maree! your quilt is truly AMAZING! it looks beautiful...I think quilts are the most precious handmade gifts that can become true family treasures :)
