    Since this is not technically "quilting" related, I decided to post it in the general section but it does relate to fabric :-)

    A few weeks ago was the March of Dimes walk in my community and in honor of my dad and little brother I made a bib to wear in the walk.

    I also recently made a fleece blanket (the no-sew) for my MIL after my DH picked out the fabric :-)

    Just wanted to brag a little bit :-)

    Since it was raining I just had someone take my picture

    This picture is both sides . . it is Betty Boop

    What a great thing to do. I hope your walk was very successful.

    Love Betty Boop too. I think she was ahead of her time.
