I Could Have Danced All Night

Yes that's just how excited I was when I finished this...

The Fat Quarter Shop Designer Mystery BOM 2012.  It was starting to get dark so the lighting isn't very good...sorry.  I allowed Andy out of the house to hold this up for me, it was a bit bigger than his wing span...and quite honestly, I think he was trying to peek around the quilt to survey the trees in the front yard.  He's already talking about what he needs to do next...someone help me please.

Sounds like Mr. Quilt Holder is thinking that your quilt would look better hanging up in a tree LOL! LOVE your finished quilt!!! This quilt was so much fun to do.

Michele said...

Beautiful! I do see him looking at the trees LOL :-)

Yvette said...

It looks great. He should have held it up from the tree. LOL

LOL - now I've got that song stuck in my head, but your quilt is certainly worth dancing over - just lovely!
Can you distract Mr. Quilt Holder? He sounds much like mine. My post was called, "Step Away From the Chainsaw". I was wore plumb out from hauling so much wood away. I told mine that if he didn't stop he was going to have to get a new wife and she probably would not know how to make his favorite cinnamon rolls like I do. :)

Cindy said...

I MORE THAN LOVE this one, Carol!!! You have done an outstanding job!!! And this is one way to keep Andy inside...LOL, holding up your beauties!!!

I'm still having such trouble posting on blogs via Bloglovin. It was bad for a couple days but getting a tad easier. I had to actually put your blog's name in my search engine since I couldn't comment from bloglovin. It'll fix itself, I'm sure.

Looking good. Mr. Quilt Holder has a full time job with you. Hugs

Abby and Stephanie said...

That sounds like a great name for your quilt! It's beautiful. Had we known about needing quilt holders before we got married we may have selected our husbands differently. Giggle. "Excuse me, please hold out your arms while I measure your wing span."

Cindy said...

I agree, Carol, loving this new sew-a-long!
Have a wonderful memorable time with family. It's great that Mr. Quilt Holder tends to your other "man". :-)
