Sorry, sweetie. They're all spoken for, but I'm glad you like them!

Buying 6 yrds of fabric for my best friend and mailing to her. She is lucky lucky they still had it in stock and it wasn't bad at the post office. :) She also happens to be the OP. Oh and I had to buy up some more fabric they are in the washer now(I know some do some don't, that is how I learned so its habit). Going to finish up on my butterfly's while the washer and dryer are going.

Darn, I was sure I was on your Christmas list! :lol:

What pattern did you use, or did you make your own up? I imagine I could draft it out, but I've been working at such a feverish pace to try and get everything done for Christmas that the thought of drafting makes me want to crawl back in bed and take a nap.

Nope, I cheated. Found the tutorial on the internet. But I also posted it in the tutorial section of this Board so you can find it there.

Thank you! I will definitely have to look it up. :thumbup:

I put the border on. What do you think?

I REALLY like the border that you have done. I think a scrappy border would have been too busy, and would have taken away from the quilt top itself.

Looks great luvfabric!!!

I think I am going to try and make a couple of aprons for my 3 girls. I had DH haul my bucket of Christmas fabrics into the house for me, I have several spread on my sewing table. I just hope I can cut them without too much pain/discomfort. I also borrowed a book on pot holders from a good friend and I may see what I can do with those. I havn't been able to do much of any Christmas shopping and was starting to feel like I should have made something for the kids for Christmas.
Wish me luck!!!

I think a scrappy border would have been great, the kind where you use 2-4 different fabrics and that is all. However, the plain border doesn't look bad. To me it makes the middle of the quilt seem small, but I think once it is quilted and bound it will look great and your mom is going to treasure it, which is what really counts. :thumbup:

Ok, I know this an old post, but I am just about to bust.

Had to let you all know I checked my GPA and grades since they were posted and instead of two B+'s and an A I got two A's and a B+!!! Woohoo!!!

Never had a GPA above 3.0 and shows at a 3.66.
I am ecstatic. Now to keep it up the next three semesters.

Ok, now I will go to church and give credit where credit is due.

If I were 20 years younger, I think I would skip the 4 miles to church!
