How Rude!

Dear Girlfriend Robin has stitched together some big blocks of beautiful linens I have been collecting for sometime. I really want to have this 'tablecloth' quilted with straight lines and as it has to be very accurately stitched for this kind of quilting, Robin offered to put it together for me. Silly me with the injured shoulders - just another gorgeous friend of mine to the rescue! A very rude person came along and read his paper and had his coffee on it this morning - not nice! - I will be folding it up soon so thought I would show you before I whipped it away!

Another WIP - I will leave the computer and go straight to the machine to finish - let's hope it all goes together nicely. It is to become a small table topper to be donated to our local quilt group for their exhibition in September - more to show you in a day or two I hope! Have a fun weekend!

    Lovely to hear from you again Lurline, if I hadn't had lunch on one of your gorgeous quilts myself I'd be shocked at Ed having coffee on there..! I've been using some of my quilts on the table ever since and I just love that they are used and appreciated every day..

    I love using my quilts on my round table. Doesn't matter if the quilt is square or oblong, I just use them anyway. Beautiful work. Is Ed still trainable? He just needs to be told what he can and cannot put on the table while said quilt occupies the space. LoL Judy C sends her best
