The first happy dance is for the birth of my baby brother's first grandchild :-)
The second is for the first quilt started and finished in my new house, Baby Lee's Teddy Bears, the first 4 photos on my webshots quilt album (still under the old name --
Fun fact: the pastel balloons are fabrics from the HS graduation quilt I made for the baby's mother some years ago.
The Teddy Bear quilt is precious; makes my fingers anxious to touch it. Don't expect mama to notice the fabric from the grad quilt for a few months. She's probably trying to figure out how live without sleep. Love that sweet baby for us. Polly
New house is obviously full of good quilting vibes! So sweet - and wonderful for a baby boy (not that I am stereotyping or anything >gThe first happy dance is for the birth of my baby brother's first
I imagine you are right about the sleep Polly. I haven't met the darling but will get to in July when I go visit 'home'. I backed it with a sweet blue gingham flannel -- how does *that* make your fingers feel?
[aside: how long ago and far away does it have to be before it stops being 'home'? Haven't lived there since 1984 but it still seems like 'home' :-) ]Rose in CA @}--->--->--- Rosanne DOT Morgan AT sbcglobal DOT net Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, fact, or tact are transmission errors.

Oh, no, no stereotypes here :-) Not at all, at all. But those blue fabrics just seemed to jump off the shelf into my arms. Hmmm.

What a cute quilt that is! It made me smile just to look at those adorable teddy bears, and it's all the more special for having those memorable fabrics in it. :)
Thank you Sandy. The original pattern had the bear holding a tulip. Balloons seemed so much more appropriate, no?
