DawnCavanaugh Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Happy Monday, everyone! Just wanted to set the record straight about a couple of questions that seemed to be bugging people at MQS last week: Yes, that really was me dressed as Mae West in honor of the MQS theme "Timeless Stars" for opening night. It was great fun to put on an "alter ego" and step out of my Midwest farm girl shoes if only for a few hours. And yes, Mary Beth did[/] see a tattoo on my arm during classes--but only of the temporary variety. Remember, I'm the one who hasn't even been brave enough to get her ears pierced, let alone have someone burn an image on my skin! What I'd like to know is, how many of you bought the cute "Born to Quilt" temporary tattoo and put it on the small of your back to surprise your other half when you got home? I'm back to my normal self--but it sure was fun last week, wasn't it? Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beverly Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Dawn, Charlene and I took your class during the time your daughter was sick. Gotta say, you absolutely do not look like the teacher we had for the seminar, but you looked great both times!! Looks like you are having fun. Good for you.

Mary Beth Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 I could not believe, my Dawn Cavanaugh, had a tatoo...I thought you had been out the night before with Karen McT!! Whew, that was scary. I didn't see the tatoos for sale or I would have gotten one. My DH always threatens to have a bass put on his back, jumping over his shoulder to grab a lure on his chest...can you imagine!! I can't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrna Ficken Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Dawn look fantastic didn't she. My hats off to you Dawn as usual. You are the best Hugs to you, Myrna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 No one in our group knew that was Dawn...I figured it out before they did, but that is because I am the self appointed president of the Dawn Cavanaugh fan club!:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Linda S Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 What a fun outfit Dawn! You looked terrific. I have to say, I was so shocked to hear that you had a tattoo, but then when I heard lots of people were "getting them," I realized they were the temporary variety. How fun, Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnCavanaugh Posted June 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Thanks, girls! I'm still sporting the "tattoo" as I'm headed to work at the Minnesota Quilter's Show with Karen McTavish. My little "Born to Quilt" tattoo doesn't stack up to Karen's luscious feathers on her arms, but it is fun. Don't know what the Minnesota ladies will think--are they as "fun-loving" as us long arm quilters or should I wear long sleeves? . Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaequilts Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Dawn...you are a hoot. You sport that little black dress with quite the flair....and that hair!! And yes...I did put that little tattoo on the small of my back. I thought I could tell my husband "we had a few margaritas" story and he might consider I would do it. But he knew me better and didn't fall for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylkamode Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Hi Dawn, Spoke to you a couple of times at the MQS, followed two of your classes and admired your quilts. It was fun to meet you, hope to see you next year Sylvia Kaptein The Netherlands, Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoAnnHoffman Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 You look marvelous darling!!!! I thought it was so funny when you had to go get your picture taken for winning a ribbon. Years from now people will see that picture and think that's how you really looked. Congratulations on winning, you deserve it. JoAnn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countrystitcher Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Hi Dawn; It was just so much fun to see the APQS folks all dressed up in costume and having a ball doing it all!!! Everyone looked so stunning! The show was awesome - congrats on your ribbon! Sharon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judi Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Dawn - love the dress! And heh - my husband can do the "real thing" - that is his job - a Tattoo Artist. We both make our money with needles....... just of a different kind! I will be at the MN show on Saturday - hope to see you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TishMarshall Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 lol, thanks for the explanation...............You should try having your ears done. It really doesn't hurt.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sams Mom Posted June 15, 2007 Report Share Posted June 15, 2007 Judi, You are my new idol. How exotic to be a quilter married to a tatoo artist. In an earlier post I stated how a-like quilters are with those who tatoo. Anyway, who knew MN was the place to "express yourself". I guess there are a lot of winter hours to ponder life's meaning. I may make the trip. I figure I'm already starting to sag, there shouldn't be too much distortion to come. Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judi Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 Oh Donna - you are funny!! He has already done Garfield clawing his way up - or maybe falling his way down is a more correct term..... on the front upper chest of at least a couple of ladies! I get to hear some pretty funny stories!! I need to have some more work done myself - but we are both so busy right now. Better to wait till the kids are back at school anyhow. I have a mommy giraffe kissing the head of a baby giraffe on my right leg. I want to finish the mommy and have her wrap around my leg. Saw this photo years ago - and just could not get it out of my head - had to do it! O.K. - so this is my way of hiding my vericous (sp?) veins! Something a lot nicer to look at!!
