Today is Tickled Pink Tuesday!!! What, you ask?? Last
Tuesday I couldn't come up with a post title and I used Tickled Pink Tuesday. Allie commented that she liked it and wouldn't it be fun to write about what Tickles us on Tuesdays, and even offered to make us a button. So today Tickled Pink Tuesday is born, thanks to Allie and I love the cute button! Now here comes the "Tickled Pink" part!
I belong to a friendship group that does a yearly quilt exchange. The beginning of the year (last January 2010) we drew names, well actually envelopes It's all top secret till the big reveal dinner. In the envelope is our name, a couple yards of fabric of our choice and any notes about quilts we like. We have all year to make our quilts, including having it quilted. Then we have a quilt exchange dinner. A local restaurant has this wonderful back room that we have all to ourselves. Let the quilt show begin!!! Such amazing quilts, and I am Tickled Pink about the center quilt....that's mine made by the sweetest friend anyone could ever ask for, Metta!! There's a few quilts I didn't get pictures of, but at our March meeting we are bringing them all back and I'll get those pictures then. Click on the photo to enlarge.
So what are you Tickled Pink about?? If you like grab the button and join in! Thanks Allie for this great positive idea! Happy Tuesday everyone.
