I always thought that would be interesting.<br /><br />And I agree about solids.

I think this season's crop of designers have a lot going for them. It should be a much better season than the last. <br /><br />Too bad you have to wait for Burn Notice. I missed the newest episode but caught some of the marathon of the previous season. I love Fiona's throw-away lines. ("If you do it right, Sam, there shouldn't be anything left to repair after you've blown it up." Or words to that effect.) I should make a Fiona quilt ;- )Magpie Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930036522719103192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-28721654294197030642010-01-23T17:02:38.600-05:002010-01-23T17:02:38.600-05:00just finished 6 solid letters as part of a secret ...just finished 6 solid letters as part of a secret challenge due the end of the month....so..I like surrounding solids with tone on tones...or marbles or..prints too.

That would be fun. I've always loved the Amish palette and Amish quilts. Making them Gwen-style would be fun, and OF COURSE adding the letters! I'm already thinking of what to say.<br /><br />Good discussion on inspiration vs copying. I'm glad you pointed out that even something like the color scheme could be the inspiration.<br /><br />I got Gwen's new Liberated Quilting today!! I'm lovin' it! Now I want to run into the quilt studio and just play. Thank you so much for your contribution to getting this book into print. And congrats on having a quilt in the book too...you must be thrilled and proud!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07498453213057487052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-5563664093049223812010-01-22T22:03:42.427-05:002010-01-22T22:03:42.427-05:00I was helping a student tie her first quilt.

We got out the yarn, threaded the needles and BOOM both kitties were on the kitchen table chasing the yarn. So much for shy.

She gets quite snarly if I try to knit with her on my lap, which Does Not Go Over Well with me. When she gets booted off my lap for misbehaving, she sits around with a hurt look on her face. Guess she figures if growling doesn't work, maybe a guilt trip will do the trick!Darlenehttp://northernlightdesigns.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-3374859729230762092010-01-22T19:24:03.980-05:002010-01-22T19:24:03.980-05:00Great idea to have a class/get together.

Good discussion on copying versus inspiration...sometimes hard to know where to draw the line. I agree that The Mentalist is a good show. Even though I DVR a few favorites, I never seem to have time to watch. I heard Modern Family is good too.Rene'https://www.blogger.com/profile/04059560899969549882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-78826779474416673412010-01-22T19:05:55.302-05:002010-01-22T19:05:55.302-05:00love the bug idea....love the bug idea....judehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01514075228644109700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14046597.post-78517151220998224922010-01-22T18:51:14.575-05:002010-01-22T18:51:14.575-05:00I have to tape two different channels at once on T...I have to tape two different channels at once on Thursday nights.
