RitaR Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Himself entered his ugly fabric challenge and won First Place on it, got an Honorable Mention on his blue quilt with a Cat head.. and the feather border.. someone said the cat ate the canary. LOL... will see if I can find the pict of his Blue Ribbon "ugly fabric, quilt challenge, and post it with this. I hate to admit he outdoes me, but he really is particular about his seams meeting, keeping everything squared, etc. RitaR & himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBQLTN2 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 well that quilt is just too cute. I dont find it ugly at all, but I must admit it would be a challenge to get all that to work together. Great job Roland!! You better watch out you are going to be locked out of the quilt studio if you keep this up!! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeoldeforest Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Go Roland! Go Roland! Hugs Rita! Let me know if you need a cheeseburger from Andy's to cheer you up! I'll buy yours but we'll make Roland and Kelley pay for their own:P I heard that the show was a great success! Our show is coming up in two weeks and I think Kelley will win a ribbon too!...at least I hope he does (just don't tell him 'cause I will never get him back to earth!)

RitaR Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 Joanne, I'm so blasted homesick and lonely I'm not sure even a crane can get me back up just now. After the first of the month, we'll take you up on Andys. Paid off one bill so a wee bit of it goes to something that is actually fun and away from home. Andy's is fine. Will need to get quilt blocks.. I think Oct. and Nov? The rest of the money goes on that danged credit card. Lord knows I just don't pay enought attention to minor details.. LOL, maybe I can lose myself. LOL Liam, are you anywhere near Oshkosh, WI. Thinking we will be at a military reunion of 4 buddies this coming summer, probably. Would love to see the lamas, or at least have a cup of coffee with you in town, and get to say hi. Keeping busy messing up, yes I'm actually messing it up, a round skirt made into a total circle, in a square. Dyes have run, blues are brown and browns are blue.. purple is blue. etc. I just want it warming someone, so am playing on it, not really messing it up.. Will soon be done. Then the dratted border. Thanks everyone.. RitaR & Himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitaR Posted October 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2009 Joy, there is something driving me nutso, in your photo. NO! Not You! lol, to the right of your head, left side of pict, looks like a huge schnozz with teeth in it. What in heck am I looking at. I know I'm not the only one curious about it!! Thanks everyone, I have Roland tethered to the oak stump out back, with a logging chain. he might otherwise end up in China or Iceland, maybe Greenland.. He really looks funny with that fat head. Have a good night and God Bless. Ritar & Himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
