I have been drooling over the tea towels and the process pieces that the gang over at 15 Minutes of Play are all are showing For the Tea Towel Challenge. I was certainly wishing I had a tea towel to play with everyone with. Then. I remembered that when daughter Carrie graduated from Design School at LSU, she took a 7 week backpacking spree across Europe with a girl friend and a gay guy friend. That was important because she had just become engaged and he was not going on this wild trip with her. She brought me these two tea towels from France. (All I got were these lousy tea towels - kind of thing, you know.)
So I was excited. And I pulled some fabrics. Chat Love. And my Cali looks just like that cat on the towel....sort of. A few more colors here and there.
And Moulin Rouge! Moulin Love!
So I need a few more fabrics, and maybe a zinger for the Chat Noir one. Maybe a mousie block. Definitely more black and more of that terrific deep yellow. And an orange needs to move over to the Moulin Rouge for sure!
Do you think I should give her one of the quilts when I finish them?????????? Maybe not! We shall see what a good daughter she has become...........

Hi, Glen- I'm a Moulin Rouge fan as well, and have made a few Moulin quilts. You can see my "Moulin Rouge dans la Nuit" at http://fiberartistjourney.blogspot.com/2012/11/lets-journey-together.html and my "Moulin Rouge Deux" at http://fiberartistjourney.blogspot.com/2012/12/designing-for-theme.html (as well as my blog background.) Being a dog and cat lover, I enjoy your blog and can't wait to see your Chat!
ReplyDeleteLove your tea towels! Can't wait to see you put on a couple of border rounds! I need to get that next border on mine. I think I have finally decided what I am going to do next.
