Can we say Car Wash?


This picture was taken a few days ago and it was cute at the time.  Poor Julia now has a cold and maybe she was not enjoying this car wash as much as we enjoyed taking her picture, but I could not help sharing it.


I am not sure if any one could guess what color quilt I am going to make next but I figured I had to give a hint.  My plan is to make a pink and gray version of my twenty five block quilt that I last did in orange and gray (still trying to figure out what to call that type quilt if any one has a suggestion please share it).  I still have lots of left over gray thanks to Tanya nixing the idea of the orange and gray quilt for her bed.  The other day in the LQS we bought 3 grab bags with "Pink" in them as we had so little in the personal stash most of this came out of those bags.  For quilts like I like to make, those grab bags are like gold.


Tanya while I was not looking, completed this above top. All I have to show for what I did this week was a pile of fabric, I think Tanya is out doing me what do you think?  For those that do not notice what this quilt is its is my pattern Color Blast done in a Tanya Style.  I myself think it looks amazing, though don't tell Tanya I still like my orange one better.


As a re-cap from last week, my son James graduated from West High School and he has officially made Tanya and I feel old.  I can hardly believe he is only a little younger then Tanya and I were when we met.  Oh does time fly.

I thought I could avoid that "old feeling" by not having kids. Ha...my nieces and nephews (and great nieces and nephews) manage to make me feel older. LOL

Poor Julia. Hope she feels better soon. Tanya did a great job on the quilt! Congrats to James on his graduation. I think your gray and pink quilt will look awesome. Knowing how much you love orange, every time I see orange fabric, I think about your love for orange. LOL

Love that quilt top... sorry your little one is sick... I have one that just graduated too! But my oldest is 28 so I have had lots of experience with feeling older as they pass life milestones... turning 21 was harder for me! lol Kathi
