Mine is obscene and the thought of listing them all on my sidebar makes me sick to my tummy! I do have them all on an Excel spreadsheet--but that is a very private document!

Well Patti anyway, and you followed! I love that you made it your own and did the mistake proud. No way I'd rip off all that applique after it's sewn. Adjust and re-design! I'd love to join you gals, but I haven't been quilting that long and really don't have that many UFO's. I don't consider tops waiting for quilting to be UFO's, but I don't have too many of those either. I will join in though, and promise to get all caught up oin all my projects!Judyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02470241202086530490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24252963.post-24682828064565817572006-09-28T08:40:00.000-05:002006-09-28T08:40:00.000-05:00Oh I love the turkeys!

That should be your story - no errors, just variations on a theme! One of my friends did it also but totally eliminated the "goofy houses" which made hers smaller so there were only two turkeys. Your colors say "fall" much better than mine do. I was still into trying to copy the colors from the picture in the book back in the early 90's when I made it.<br><br>I will definitely join you in 2007 - but I want to get at least half (if not more) of my "flimsies" to the finished quilt stage. I think I've done a pretty good job of gettin UFO's to the "flimsy" stage this year - 9 done and at least 2-3 more that should be done by the end of the year.<br><br>Love the patterns on the United Notions site - but that is a place I try to avoid. It just makes me dool all over my keyboard when I look at the new Moda collections each season.Pattihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12437458793813004615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24252963.post-37766550714046381002006-09-27T16:06:00.000-05:002006-09-27T16:06:00.000-05:00Your post makes me smile.
