I'd forgotten how many of these I've done before ... there's this one, this one, and even this one ... hmm... I may need more variety in my life!
The fabrics are all ones I had on hand. I'd hoped to use more childish ones, like the dogs and

I. strolled into the house and announced that this quilt looks like corn chowder. I would love to be a fly on the wall if the boy ever takes a Rorschach test. I was thinking more classic childish charm and I'm not yet seeing the corn chowder, but I'm going to keep looking.

At about 1:00 am the other morning I was quilting this and decided to take a tiny little break to rest my back. Just to make sure the quilt was comfy enough I gave it a test run and set it on the floor, still full of safety pins, and rested upon it. Within seconds I was sound asleep. Jason came home and woke me up, commenting that I was sleeping on pins ... but I was just resting ... two hours after deciding to take that tiny little break. I think I need one of those "tested and passed, inspector #XX" stickers for this quilt, because it certainly passed with flying colors.
Creative Little Daisy is participating in a dinner challenge and posted this Chicken Parmigiana post the other day. It looks so yummy and easy. I decided instead to try Eggplant Parmesan, because C. has decided to become a vegetarian (do all teenagers do this?), and followed this recipe. Never in my life had I cooked eggplant before, and only once have I eaten it so I had no idea what I was doing, or how it would taste, but it was easy ... and good! I followed the recipe but divided it into two 9x13 pans, freezing one for next week. It was hit or miss with the kids - 3 for and 2 opposed. Tomorrow is tofu, which I have never cooked or eaten and I'm not sure I want to start now ... pray for us.
Every time you post a quilt, it's my favorite! Until you post the next one. :)
