It's Sunday!

Parents, PLEASE! Look at your kids' clothing before leaving the house! Her two sizes too small thong is cutting her hips in half. Then her too tight dress magnifies all the bumps and humps including the fat dimples! And she's really not too big...the clothes are just too tight. (For those of you who remember - looks like she has on a sanitary napkin doesn't it!!)

Cain loves chocolate chip cookies - just further proof that he is my grandson. :D

I made King Cup Cakes for our monthly birthday cake at work. Neither the judge nor I could find purple sugar crystals anywhere (without ordering which we waited too late to do) so she purchased purple cupcake papers. The recipe is on King Arthur Flour's website.

Yippee!!! After 21 hours of hand quilting, I completed the first pass on my applique quilt! The border is 10" x 94"...crosshatched and outlining the vine on both sides.


Next roll on the frame - starting on the blocks. I originally planned on calling this Rose of Sharon variation "Sherry's Rose." But since the death of Mama nearly a year ago now, this will be "Shirley's Rose."

Penny Said...

...that I'm pretty! ;o) (From photos in my previous post.) My humble self says, THANK YOU! I keep going back and looking at the only me photo I cropped off the photo with my sister-in-law (now X), younger brother Billy Joe (aka BJ), and Mama. Sigh.

Got my car washed again. I love watching the red strips... Doesn't take much to entertain me! LOL
Speaking of red! I don't know how they got in there, but a pair of Sam's white underwear was washed with the colored clothes. And there were quite a few red items in the wash. His whitey tideys are now pink. LOL I took a photo of them against the white washing machine top, but the pink didn't show up very good.

Progress on Sherry's Rose...
after 5 1/2 hours of quilting. It's about 9 x 24" or so. The crosshatching and most of the applique in that area is outline quilted.
