distracted me!)

Starting quilt number 2!

Bob and Bubba are proud to present the beginnings of quilt number two!!!!
Last week on thursday, we all went to Danielle's house to pick out a pattern, and start a new quilt!!



(below) this part is probably the hardest part...picking out the
pattern and fabrics... especially since they are so extremely good, they
gotta pick out something for there level of quilting...not any
of that easy stuff......lol



OH MY GOODNESS I LOVE BRODIE!!!
This, is a picture of Danielle shower curtian... (below)
she says: (this is a direct quote too!)
"It is the most hideous thing I have ever seen,
or at least really close to the most hideous
thing I've ever seen"
But I mean, come on they are not that bad, they
are only 20 years old. you may be wondering why they are still there? Gary, (thats right) Gary wants them to stay there.....ok, back to quilting....


its sad, because Rachel was not able to come again, her weapons miss her....
Last time Shadow got dressed up, this time its Brodie's turn
look how happy he is!


ok, so about half the day was spent eating delicous snacks provided
by Danielle...
ummmmm....Gary
Gary hacking into Danielle's facebook to
play games
I really like taking pictures of plates that
have been eaten off of.....its SO artistic!

Danielle eating yummy smore dessert that Sis. Kelly made.
she looks....happy

oh! look! ok, so we really wanted to use this yellow
in the quilt becuz it matched. (not becuz it looks
like a color for football jerseys)
But, before that, you had to rip all the seems out...yep they were old
pillow shams!!

sara cutting the fabric....and some weird person with no name
bubba had a temporary friend for this meeting. I call him, Lil' Voodoo. becuz in reality, he is a voodoo cherry tomato. Speaking of tomatos....Danielle had cherry tomatos as part of our snack...TOMATOS! i absaloutly adore tomatos! Gary, had told danielle NOT to buy tomatos, because nobody would eat them, can you believe him??? ended up all the tomatos were gone buy the end of the day....
Rest in Peace Lil' Voodoo

Huckleberry Britt. post 2 of the day

Below is the post about us finishing the quilt!!!!!!! But while we were quilting, we also decided to try and help Danielle decide on a names for the Baby she is going to be having. Since she perferably wants a Bible name, we took out this bible name book. And began the search



Here are some awesome names I found and wrote down....this one I thought was soooo totally awesome, I could not stop saying it to myself. Vajezatha Britt. It is a pleasure to type that name on the keyboard! it is so pretty. I mean, if it was MY child that name would be on top of the list, the one on the bottom of the picture is a real name too. I think its a wonderful name also. even though I cant really pronounce it....Danielle should still consider it. Uriah Britt (just so you know, britt is Gary's middle name, that is going to be the middle name, for real.) It has a good ring to it. And Danielle almost really considered it for a split second!

ALAS! what can I say????? Huckleberry Britt. That is the most awesome name I have ever heard in my whole entire life!!!!!! this is going to really be the child's nickname if its a boy..
I cant say enough about this name! Everytime I say it it brightens my day! And when he has turned eighteen, it can be shortened to Huck. (and danielle could even use this as its real name....but for some reason she is not as enthusiastic about it as me....I mean, berries are in the Bible! so it sooooo totally counts!)
This is a note on the bottom of the page of names to give to Gary. (if you cant read it , let me know....)

WE FINISHED IT!!!! week 12 Video TOO!

Thats right everyone! we finished the quilt!!!!!! We have completed the quilt, and it took only 12 days!!! Thats becuz of all the hard work and determination the quilters have put in it!!! Rachel was not able to attend the last day because of her new job....but her quilting spirit was...lol
All that was left for day 12 was 5 more squares, and the binding. Bob and Bubba are soooo excited that "they completed their quilt" It is so pretty. oh and there was a week 11 I just didnt really get pics on here but alot of the pics on the vid of danielle are from week 11. Im just leaving these pictures in the random order I found them in.....lets now take a look at the wonderful day we had finishing the quilt. 7/11/08


Below: this is Sara, she says that I never have pictures of her
on the quilting blog, so Sara, here you go. Sara did a very
good job sewing on the quilt binding. Sara has done alot of
the sewing throughout this indeavor.


below: sewing the last few squares on the quilt.... Bob and Bubba "working"
Sara again, personally I think this really is a cool picture. I believe this is when they are getting ready to cut..... Sis. Kelly was awesome, she did all the ironing, and there
was alot of it to do! (and she provided delish snacks....) here is one of her super cute kitties! working hard SEE?????? 3 pictures of Sara already Danielle did awesome too! she did most of the pinning
and cutting.
This was also the day I thought up the wonderful totally
amazing name for her Baby. (if you don't
know what it is ASK ME!)

Bob and Bubba could not be smiling any bigger if it
was tomatably possible
last step: sew on the binding!!!!
measuring to cut
the remains of the delicious snacks we had.. I also thought this was
very artsy looking.....
more binding......
"Rachel" about to smack Sara with the stick....even
though she was not there.

almost done!!!!!!!!!

the incomplete quilt...........

THE COMPLETED QUILT!!!!! Is it not the prettiest thing you have evr seen????

wow...........
The sisters in stitches have finished their first quilt ever.
And had an AWESOME time doing it!!!!!!!
Finally a video clip of the day...

To make matters worse, I cant put any quilting pictures on this post beuz rach has the pics on her account (which is locked) and she is at the barn. BUT! WE WILL RESUME QUILTING ASAP!!!

This is for you Danielle!!!!

Since Danielle has provided us with so many priceless and hilarious moments, we couldn't resist putting it all together in what we hope is a very entertaining video.

Hannah is always trying to catch Dani in the act of dancing, or anything else "special" she does.

WE LOVE YOU!
Sara, Rachel, and Hannah
