It's hard to accurately describe it if you haven't lived with one, isn't it? Here's one of my favorite photos of my boy. I plan on taking this one and another of Luke and making a wall hanging or a pillow of them.

Thank you!

We have a couple of these places in the Iowa City/Coralville area. I've not been to one, but I hear they are very well received. I believe a few of my neighbors went to one as a "girls night out" and had a lot of fun chatting while they assembled their dinners. Wish I had thought of doing this for my son before he moved away. Having someone do the shopping and prep work is a real time saver. Actually, I probably have the time...just not the interest! KJ

What a handsome boy! I just made a couple of montage pictures of Grizz and my beloved Sophie and hung them in the living room a couple of weeks ago. I had the frames with the divided mats forever so I thought using them was a good idea. One day I'll make a wall hanging of my kitties past and present and put it over my fireplace. The dogs will get one someday too... Debi

My advice: don't subscribe at all right now. Instead, pick up a magazine that appeals to you from the stand every month. If you notice that you tend to pick up the same one every time, then that's the one you should subscribe to! And see what your library has. Roberta in D

There's two of those in my neighborhood. Don't know if it's the same franchise as Louise's sister (the ones near me are called Dream Dinners.) They have all the ingredients prepared along with the recipe; you assemble it, take it home, and either cook it right away or freeze it. Their advertising encourages people to do a whole week's worth at once.

The one closest to me seems to have a lot of business. I can't say I see the appeal, but then I enjoy cooking so I'm probably not their target customer.

Just don't keep it in the freezer >g< . In message , Jacqueline writes

Thanks! I took a peek at your quilts below.

But if it improves your quilting, go ahead! LOL

Ah! Never thought of that >g< . In message , Kathy Applebaum writes

That is really cute, Terri! Lucky SIL!

Terri, do you happen to remember what magazine the pattern is in?

We have some of these here in the Seattle area! I've often wondered if it would be fun.

Indeedy doody!...rifle, oh nose, the tower of books fell down! Dog runs away, husband looks scared...MY SEAM RIPPER! I've been looking all over for that...ah...here it is! Quiltmaker edition March/April 2006 "I remember Aprons":pattern by Elaine Martin of North Platte, Nebraska. I tried to photo copy it but it won't show to scale but I'll leave my picture up for awhile if you'd like to copy it to your drive for future reference. The background squares are 7&1/2"x7&1/2".

Thanks so much, Terri!
