May For Me - Day 18


Just to show you, I do know how to make a large quilt. This was a BOM maybe two years ago? And I don't remember from where - sure someone recognizes it so I can give tribute. I have done so many small pieces, I am so ready to take on a big quilt again. This one needs that silly center fixed - you can tell I plopped on that ugly large yo-yo that just doesn't work - so as soon as that is replaced, off to the long armer to be 'prettied up'. Yes, all my mess and glory - you can see why I keep a cheap plastic table clothe on my good table - Miss Belle has to get my attention for a cuddle by a bit of 'stretch and claw'.

BINGO CALL WORDS

N - ICE CREAM
O - RHINO
I - SOCCER
G - LADYBUG(S)
N - VINE(S)
O - ARGYLE
N - SNOWFLAKE(S) or SNOW or FLAKE(S)

Remember to check in with Marcia, Tonya, and Snoodles for their words as well as what they may share for May For Me.

If you get a BINGO contact Tonya at Hillbilly Handiworks.
Some of you are getting discouraged - Don't - I gave up on a quilt bingo once and had I stayed with it, I would have had the 'black-out' and grand prize.

***PLEASE*** CHECK THE PRIZE/WINNER PAGES ON TONYA'S AND MARCIA'S BLOGS - THERE ARE BINGOS THAT HAVE BEEN COMPLETED/WON AND THEREFORE DONE - ONLY CALL A BINGO FOR THOSE STILL OPEN THANK YOU***


CLOSING THOUGHT

My SIL and I got into a fit of silliness and laughter over the thought of the up-coming bathing suit season when a TV commercial came on (obvious reasons)and then I saw this - so I leave you with some humor for the weekend - sorry guys


Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

That quilt is so pretty. I haven't made a large quilt in a long time either, but I have and idea for one hopping around my head.
Love the closing giggle.

Your big quilt is beautiful!
My sister gave me a mug a few years ago with that saying on it, only it says "A Sister is Like a Good Bra....". I suggested a banquet at church with the church ladies and this as the theme, but she nixed it! Oh, well.....

Lovely quilt. Be sure to post it when it's quilted.
That's funny I was just bra shopping yesterday. That's just what I'd look like in a swimsuit. How did you know?
