Wonky Word Finished!

I FINISHED!!!!! And I've even got the label on!!! Now I can go to bed!

I love the colors, I love the words, I love the stars, I love the quilting. And more than that, Leiya is happy with it too. The Wonky Word quilt is going with us to America tomorrow. I think I started January 20th of this year, and that means it took me six months to do. It was a great six months and I hope I'll find a chance to make another one. Thank you again Tonya for your inspiration and advice!

The upstairs is a mess and the bags aren't packed yet, but Tetsu the whiz packer will help us tomorrow morning. Talk about cutting it down to a fine line!!! I'm leaving here at 10:30 so I won't be able to post again, but we'll see what I can do from the States. Thank you Ulla, Tonya and Calico Cat. I'll take the address and password with me.

Bye!

Tanya, I hope you have a wonderful time in the states. You are coming here at almost the same time as our exchange students, so be sure to say hi to anybody who looks like they might belong to our group!
Your words quilt looks terrific. I am about to start the words on my challenge quilt.
We'll miss you! Take care, and drop by when you get a chance, but don't feel any pressure if you can't.

A wonderful quilt - how clever you are! -- and Tonya also, for teaching so many of us how to make these wonky letters.

Safe travel - have fun!

Tanya - your wonky word quilt is splendid - well done!

Enjoy your trip and don't weigh that plane down on the return trip with too much excess baggage ;oP

Hope you'll have a great trip! :D
The Wonky Word-quilt is really pretty, I love the colours.
We're preparing to leave on a trip to the States ourselves, to Los Angeles and Bemidji (in Minnesota), visiting relatives and friends - and we've packed nothing yet.. (the plane leaves in.. 2 days).
