Predidential Pardon....

"Presidential Pardon" - That's what this Sandy Gervais pattern is called using her Gobble Gobble charm pack from Moda. When we got the pattern, Jan and I said...."Looks good, but it would be cuter if we tweaked it just a bit!" And then when Harriet put it out up on the design wall, she said, "Looks okay, but it would be cuter if we tweaked it just a bit!" A few of our customers thought he was okay, but agreed that he would be cuter tweaked a bit, and they joined in the fun. (Thanks, Alicia and Nan!) So....guess what? This is a picture of the "tweaked turkey". (Bet you can't say that five times in a row fast! You'll have to take a look at the original pattern and see what we did. He's not completely done in this picture. Still needs to be quilted and his feathers permanently stitched and his eyes are just taped on for the photo shoot! Goal is to get him done for the EverGreen Quilt Show Friday and have our "tweaks" written up for anyone who might want to make him. We'll see.

Hope your Labor Day is going well. Around here, John's nursing a cold/sore throat thing and I am trying not to get it! Otherwise, I'm headed to Fab-Etc to hang the Krakow challenge pieces and tidy up a bit. Trying to finish up the loose ends before the Show.....seem to be moving at a snail's pace, though! Last load of laundry ready to fold - have a super day!
