Is There Such a Thing as An Ugly Quilt?

Well, you be the judge...(see picture to the right) I started this quilt at the retreat and decided to finish it no matter how 'ugly' I think it is. Cindy gave me the idea to make it a summer quilt by sewing the backing and top right sides together and then turning it right side out. No batting. I think it needed something so I scallopped the top and bottm sides. It has just a few vertical lines that follow the brick path rows to hold it together and it is top stitched all around. Well, maybe it didn't turn out that bad afterall........

My 45th Birthday

All my favorite people met at Pappadeaux's for my 45th Birthday. I got lots of goodies like shopping money, pj's & undies, music cd's & even my favorite Cherry Cheescake! Thanks to my family for making my day special.
