| The British are coming!!! Well, just to Dallas..... I have an acquaintance who is from England, and her Nan (grandma) just had a birthday, so for Nan's birthday, I ordered some British fabrics and made Nan a quilt. I still have to pick a back, but here's the top: Enjoy!!!

| Close up of the fabrics Here's a close up of the fabrics. One has teapots, buses, telephone booths and other "royal" things. The other says I heart UK and has soldiers and buses and other British items.

| Into the light I finished the borders on this top tonight. Got it up on the wall, took my pictures, went to move it up because it was dragging the floor slightly and my stupid metal chair that I was standing on folded up on me!!! I can honestly say this quilt (or the fall) made me cry!! But its pretty, and I can't wait to get it quilted.
