Much appreciated Angela. I am going to sit him somewhere that I will see him regularly so that he can continue to make me smile!
Now for the rest of the happy mail for tonight. Louise sent in this lovely quilt top – this is for a special request so next it will be off to the quilters.
Sonya sent me a bunch of these gorgeous brown and gold squares and some companion fabric to go with them. A great Hawthorn quilt I suspect.
Finally I received a huge parcel yesterday from Dess. She sent me these three laundry bags
and each one is sealed with a kiss – love that. Dess also sent two awesome quilts but I am hoping to get them packed up ready for posting tomorrow so I thought I would wait and show those on Friday night for Weekly Dispatches.
Moving right along. I am running a bit late with the Request List for this week. Normally it comes out on Monday but with all the arrangements for the Dinner plus taking yesterday afternoon to run my son and his mate to and from their HSC Exam I have not had time. So here is the list tonight.
As always please remember that everyone is asked to give us their favourite colours and then their hobbies and interests. They do not expect it – we ask for this information.
You will note there is one fellow (19) who likes green and gold but he loves the Swans and St George, both of who are red and white teams. Of course he is not expecting all of that in the one quilt. You get to pick what you want to focus in on. Similarly another fellow has said he likes green and blue Science fiction such as Star Wars, Star Trek and Firefly, Warrhammer 40,000 game, or pirates. He is not expecting all of those in the one quilt. He just wanted to give us lots of options to work with and has also said, as most of them do, he is pretty easy going and will be happy with whatever we send him.
