Easy being green! and blue!


To fulfill my obsession with small stars, I put together a bunch of charms I had of Kaffe, and picked out some of my favorite greens and blues to put this quilt top together...

It goes together very quickly and easily. Although I should be binding...
I have a lot of binding I need to get to today also.

Need a great Xmas gift idea?
check these out.

When Cheri came by the other day, she very sinfully brought me a variety of Vosges chocolates.
I am putting away quite quickly, the Black Pearl bar.
wasabi
ginger
black sesame seeds
and dark cacao

(and by "PUTTING AWAY" I don't mean in a drawer....)
it means nobody else is getting any... ;-)

Yum.
they come highly recommended...

LOL -- I just came from Cathy's blog! Kaffe and chocolate may be the Christmas craze among quilters! I love your quilt top! It looks like something from one of Kaffe's books. Well done!

Thanx so much for posting the link. I have been working at the local office ever since the 'report' came out. This is NOT OK...Women's health should not be a political issue.

PS LOVE the quilt!

Thanks for the mammogram link. I posted it to Facebook. I currently have 3 friends who found breast cancer on their first mammogram.

Wonderful quilt with stars!
Signed the petition - when I went in at age 36 with a lump - NO MAMMOGRAM was ordered, I was sent on my way. Went back 6 months later with same lump that had grown and was then Stage 3. Surgery, chemo and radiation and lots of years later I am so blessed to still be here. Trust your own instinct regarding your body.
