Kelley's Coasters...

Kelley of With Hook and Needle made fun of Bren's and my quiltalong quilts cuz of their brightness. She is all about drab/prim...and we love her dearly...know she was just giving us a bad time. (And, yes, Kelley, we do really know that brights are not for you.) It was done all in good fun...and I thought I was going to fall off my chair laughing!


Kelley left this comment on Bren's blog..."I'm going to go rest my head and add a cold compress, maybe hang on to the phone in case I need to call 911 since those colors are giving me chest pains...ummmm, they coordinate nicely and your piecing and pressing look great...and uh, glad you're happy with it...(rolling eyes and giggling - you know me and color)"


And, on mine..."just when I was getting over the shock of seeing Bren's quilt...thud..."


So, just to shut her up help her get over the shock to her system (ya know, the brightness of our quiltalong quilts), I made two coasters...even put binding on them like I do on my quilts!


Kelley has the coasters, so I can show you...they measure ~4" square...

Kelly sounds like quite a character. I love the drama. Quilt looks good, but don't put too much white on the outside.
Manley still needs a new blankie---about 3' square with gold colors. Hint hint!!

The three of you in one room would be some serious belly laughs!!! It's good to hear about some good ol' chop bustin' to keep the smiles going! The coasters do look great!

the photo doesn't do these justice...they are so adorable and prim...Jaqcue suggested I put them in the freezer then use them on my eyes to reduce strain and relax them...LOL...I was thinking of getting out some string and making a bikini top out of them...no photos though...
