SEW...What do you think? CUTE?!
I ended up breaking up the green and red border with a wee red checked flange, for a pop of colour!
This quilt REALLY reminds me of my Grade One days...I often did a
Welcome Back to School Bulletin Board where the kids made watermelon slice booklets (they would draw a picture of their favourite Slice of Summer under the watermelon cover flap..and maybe print a few words...:) and of course they had to include the ants...and sing the 'Ants Go Marching' song....ahhh yes, the good ol'days! haha
I love this sweet quilt...I did improv slices so each slice is just a bit different... and those ants...just out and out...adorable!
Did this bad boy Ant just use my quilt for a bathroom? haha (I know, I know...my audience has changed! BUT my Grade Ones would have LOVED that comment!)
Oh well...Life's a Picnic...even in Grade One!
I hope your Slice of Summer is sweet and delicious...AND the good news is... there is still plenty of it left, so get out there and enjoy it!!
That is super adorable!!
ReplyDeleteIt is such a sweet summer quilt--in spite of the ants "doings".
ReplyDeletethis is so cute!! the ants are life's challenges-- (into each life etc.) at least I see them that way..what a fun project...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteLove the borders on this cute quilt, P. It's the perfect summertime addition your quilt collection.
ReplyDeleteCute. And I like that you used a variety of red fabrics for the watermelon slices.
ReplyDeleteReally cute little quilt. Our summer has been so hot and humid that it has been hard to enjoy. But it beats snow any day.
ReplyDeleteSweet finish Paulette, glad you are starting to feel better.
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Love the addition of the red flange! A lovely summer table topper indeed!
ReplyDeleteLove this little quilt and the ants add that special touch.
ReplyDeleteThat came out really nicely and a fun piece. Not enough time for me, I want summer but in the fall when the crowds go home, haha.
