It's a nice feeling to find a place for one of the older prints in the stash.

I went year before last and was out before dawn to see the character balloons take off. We had a three year old with us and he was "good as gold" with all the excitement - maybe because Grandma Sudie (and another lady who is a surrogate grandma were there). If you ever get a chance, go see the balloons. It is fantastic. My daughter lives there (and is a high school math teacher), so I just happened to be there while Grandma Gina was in Israel for three weeks. I'd love to go again. The quilt captures many of the colors in all the balloons. I adore the bright cheery yellow - it makes the quilt pop for me! My older grandson asked me to make him a quilt and this would be a great pattern for him. Then he asked me if I would make his little brother a quilt, too. I need to get that done so someday they will have quilts that grandma made them. Thanks for the inspiration and you are certainly ahead of the game for Christmas 2016.Suzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05825257012315494167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983525468027485560.post-72219167650421598892016-01-10T10:06:24.990-06:002016-01-10T10:06:24.990-06:00Once again, I just had to look at the picture and ...Once again, I just had to look at the picture and I knew it was your blog.
