Can't Wait

I feel like a kid anticipating Christmas, but I can't wait...


That little lady on the left is my SIL, Vail, (the other one is a SIL too) and she QUILTS.
SHE IS MAKING ME A QUILTED THROW AND I CAN'T WAIT.

She told me she would make it as long as I didn't need it by a certain date and I don't BUT I CAN'T WAIT to snuggle inside "that" quilt. I CAN'T WAIT for the UPS guy to drop that package off at MY house.

Last week Jessica, Mabry and I went to Nashville (or as my SIL says, Nashvegas) and I bought the fabric that is going to be MY  quilt.


Here is the pattern of what MY quilt will look like


The muslin will be the front and back of the quilt, the solid plum and the design plum fabric will be the four squares with the gray design fabric being the square that is on top of the 4 squares...did ya get that? Even I'm confused. And the gray will also be the border.

I recently painted our master bedroom gray and decided that plum will be the accent color and this quilt...MY quilt will lay at the end of the bed. Who am I kidding...that quilt...MY quilt will be wrapped around me while watching TV in the living room. Hmmm I guess I should have had it done in my living room colors.

Nah!

Here is a couple of other quilts that Vail has made, she is a quilting machine that girl.

Hi there! It was so good to meet you too at Sue's brunch. Thanks for stopping by my blog. You are so lucky to have someone close to you make quilts. They are so wonderful to have and there is nothing better than a homemade one in your own colors! You'll have to post a pic after you get it.
