"That's Close Enough...I guess!"

Someone was having a hard day at work when they printed this fabric, or I should say, "tried to print this fabric." These color windows and registration marks are all over the place! Do you think it was a machine malfunction or a three-martini lunch?

This great photo is from Brenda in Manitoba, Canada. You recently saw her house blocks with words on them. Visit her blog at: http://www.scrapsandstrings.blogspot.com/. She is one creative lady!

Fonts on Quilts

This month we have been looking at fabrics with nice fonts, and quilts with writing on them (and not just selvages). I remember learning to read in first grade using the "Dick, Jane and Sally" readers, so this quilt block really spoke to my heart:) I love the color combination too.

This block was made by Brenda in Manitoba, Canada. She is making nine house blocks for a quilting class. You can check out her blog at: www.scrapsandstrings.blogspot.com. She has some great quilts on her blog.
