Thank you!!

 Happy Weekend!!  I at last got my latest string top together.  Goose on a string...what do you think?  Good name or not?  The day is fair, a light breeze, just very nice in the low 70's.  So I spread the quilt top out on the lawn.  As far as my future plans go, I just never tire of strings, but will try to concentrate on something else for a while.  MAYBE, LOL!!
 Here is an idea for using some 1/2 square triangles, if you have little baggies of them like I do.  Needs a good pressing!!
Another string top picture...and some little critter is digging little holes in the grass back there!  Maybe someone is SQUIRRELING away nuts for the winter??


*******************Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I so appreciate everyone sharing their concept of what an angel is.  I loved hearing your thoughts so much!!  I had always heard that when people passed away, they became angels.  I don't know if this is true or not, and that is why I was asking...so thank you so much for your input, dear friends!!!


Have a great day, all!!!

Love the quilts both big and small! Please tell the size of your little HST's; are they the weensy bonus triangles?
Now I'm late answering, but I'd say that an angel is any soul, living or departed, who is doing God's work. By the way, that means that you qualify!!!!! hugs!

That name is perfect for your quilt! It turned out terrific. I also like the little quilt idea for using half-square triangles. :)

Goose On A String works beautifully - great quilt. I really like quilts that incorporate a few different block patterns.

Rose Marie said...

I was wondering if you could indulge us with a showing of all your quilts/tops that you have made using strings. It would be fantastic to see them all ... again! :o)

Puffins and purples!!

I was tempted by Puffins...a squirrelly breed!!  LOL!  This fabric was shared with me, and I have been loved these bright, candy corn colors...
