A FUNNY THING HAPPENED TODAY????


As you seen I got the Christmas Wish quilt all done yesterday--remember???

And remember I showed you that I sewed a ribbon and a button on top of each block---WELL
I took the quilt to show my friend Mary downstairs today--but on the way on Wednesdays I go by way of the community room first as they have a "coffee hour" and always have "sweets" and I like to take some to Mary--so as I got there today--everyone says--lets see your quilt--now little sister is sitting there, too---so I open up the quilt--all proud of my work---and then little sister says--why did you do that one different--is it a mistake or did you do it on purpose????
I really thought little sister had lost it---and no body else could see anything different--so she gets up and comes around and points to the first block--

and we all "gasp" and by "catfish" there is one "different"---can you see what I did????   we all had a little laugh and I went on my way!!!


At Mary's I show her the quilt and we laugh about the one block--then I go into the kitchen to fix her tea and I look down and I really start LAUGHING---you see my vest was on "backwards" and it really was noticeable---I like to laugh at myself--but I think I was also laughing at the fact that NOBODY IN the community room noticed---only what was wrong with the quilt!!!!!
Any way this is my story and I am laughing all the way through it!!!!!!



AND here is another BOM finish---see side bar for a link to copy it --my two really good blogging friends, Alice and Joy are doing these together--so hurry over and get one!!!!


JOKE TIME:
The highlight of our zoo trip was a peacock showing off its plumage.
My four-year old son was particularly taken with it.

well that's all for tonight---Happy thoughts go your way---
Hugs, Di&co

I would have never ever noticed it either until you pointed it out. It is still so beautiful.

I actually thought you had done it on purpose, so I didn't comment :))It was cute with the one block different ....
Have a beautiful day!

I would never have noticed it!! It's a quick fix though if you want to change it. Love your "patience"!!! I must get my fabric out and put some sashing on mine, to make it look prettier and to try to see what on earth it might become!

I am one of the guilty that looked at it yesterday and never noticed at thing--other than it looks really nice with the bows. Now I must get busy on Patience don't I?? Oh dear.

It looks great no mater where the ribbons are. It is funny that nobody noticed you were backwards though. I guess they were too busy admiring the quilt :)

I love your My Christmas Wish quilt. I hope to make that one myself someday. I hope that you are having a great weekend!
