I am really starting to LOVE quilting!!!

This was Brent unfinished Fathers Day gift...

that he knew nothing about...pretty good secret keeper, huh!!!

I could only work on it when he was at work.

Anyway, I still have to do the backing and stipple it...which I am so excited about!!!

I wanted to use a bunch of his old work shirts...

but it was hard to work with that material...so I used the one block and will try to figure something out with the rest of the shirts!!!

I was worried it would be too cheesy...

You know...fireman...patriotic...

But I am loving how it turned out.
Hopefully it will get done quicker now that I can work on it out in the open, cause now he knows about it!!!

I am doing this quilt with the Old Red Barn quilt-a-long!!!

It has been so much fun to do.

I have 'met' some really neat ladies who really know what they are doing.

And hopefully...Dana will continue...and keep doing quilt-a-long after quilt-a-long!!!

So much fun!!!

ALSO...

Cassi is passing on her crazy outfit gene down to Elsie.

Cassi always has some pretty crazy outfits.

I love it.

It fits her personality to a 'T'!!!

So when I saw her in this today...

I couldn't help but laugh!!!

How great is that!!!

Then later on today I saw Elsie playing outside in her 'Restaurant'

And she had this tiny chefs hat smashed on her head!!!

The hat came with some toy kitchen stuff, and I think it was meant for a doll, 'cause it never fit the girls...

Anyway...I thought it was pretty cute too!!

Crazy kids and their imaginations!!!

LOVE IT!!!
