I had to put a photo of the Professor in his kilt at a friends wedding. Our friend was a Scot, whose mum said the Professor had the legs for a kilt. I agree. He looked pretty grand that day.
Thought you might enjoy seeing the lovely little babboons in the trees...I do miss seeing these guys hanging out literally, they were more common close to the coast, not sure why, but we did see them often, when driving about. And I have to adm
it...that I did succomb to a few fabric "spends" this week. Shame on me, nothing major, but I did buy 4 yds of fabric to complete my 2009 BOM at the fab
ric store. I also quilted 3 quilts this past week and finished this flimsy, which will be loaded tomorrow on "Rosie" the longarm. I have to get it quilted ready to deliver to a family member. I have owed it to him for a long time. The first was a UFO quilt

I would like to add that I purchased some silicon lubricant for thread...as I had thread issues on my longarm. It so helped me, the site is called Time and Again quilters. It was simple to use, and worked wonders for my thread. So if you have thread issues check out the site and give it a try. It was fairly inexpensive and clear, no residue on the quilt. Seems like it will last a long time too, so economical as well. On a totally other vane, I am so missing cricket .... it is the season in South Africa but we don't seem to get any coverage here. I loved it on TV and in person. I find myself watching BBC news so I can get a glimpse of the English cricket ...just to satisfy my itch! Hope you all have fun sewing.

With English cricket in the state it is in at the moment, it must be a poor substitute! A lovely collection of quilts, they would be very welcome here at the moment
Kilt and quilts all look great. I've been trying to make a patchwork for 6 months, I must get started again.
Love seeing all the quilts from your long arm - you are doing some fabulous work!
The kilts are fabulous! My mother was a McLean, and it's my Grandson's middle name, so we feel at least partially Scots around here. Lovely to read of your adventures in So. Africa.
Good wishes

I love that green quilt in particular, but then I love green! Your husband looks great in the kilt - very dashing.
It won't be the cricket season here until a few months' time, but like you - I enjoy it. x
Enjoyed seeing the beautiful quilts! And the babboons are wonderful!!!
Fun stuff! I think your post title would win a blogging award for most random title!
Fun blog, I'll hang around a bit!
I love all your pictures, but that BOM quilt is especially splendid!
You do beautiful long arm work, and it's fun to see the quilts you've done. I also enjoy your Africa photos; it;s much different than I would have pictured it. I'm glad you stopped by my blog.
I have a Lone star UFo - you just reminded me ;-(
BTW, I'll send your love to SA - we're off shortly :-)
