What? Ne..."... a dog's breakfast" ??? What? Never in my life have I heard that! And my husband, a city boy, thinks I (a country girl) am the queen of odd little phrases and sayings. I love this one! My goal is to use it at least three times this week... and believe me, in my job as a teacher of 10 year olds and as a painter and in my house... I have plenty of opportunity to see, look at, find, and create "a dog's breakfast!" <br />Ha ha ha... laughing at my new favorite phrase already!<br />And, no, the back of your quilt is not a dog's breakfast. :)Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12410396096264457223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-70352774745534726812015-10-22T11:11:05.603-04:002015-10-22T11:11:05.603-04:00Beautiful colours!

So beautifully done :) I have been told that it is best to use the smallest needle possible when using really thin threads. . . I don't know if that translates to the long arm? <br /><br />Your mystery blocks look fab, always so interesting to try and guess what the end result will be :) Judy@Quilt Paradigmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04853567189199120222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-20772551630313580832015-10-13T11:27:37.248-04:002015-10-13T11:27:37.248-04:00Your quilting is beautifulYour quilting is beautifulbarbara woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824180957906837061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8372716062763623967.post-16880192528045490382015-10-13T10:43:48.857-04:002015-10-13T10:43:48.857-04:00Absolutely gorgeous quilting!

I also love how you used up orphan blocks to pull them together; no one would guess! <br /><br />I really like the chevron pattern you made playing with the SiaS blocks.
