voting at mortonmasterpiece.com

The voting began today on mortonmasterpiece.com.  Of course you know which one is MY favorite it's KAREN'S version of A Bountiful Life that I have shown you.  

Isn't it adorable!!!  I am truly in shock over this quilt, the bright Jo fabrics, Karen's divine applique technique, those dear, dear bird/fruit/animal motifs, oh what could be better. 

Anyway, go vote (no ulterior motive there of course bwahhhhaaaahaa)!  

Here is a screenshot of Karen's description, etc.:

Oh....what else was I going to say.....oh yes, a very nice lady named Diann asked me how I am printing the photos on fabric for the BB Suffrage blocks, which I think you all know, but she probably doesn't realize she has her email set on the infamous "no-reply" so Diann, first I print the templates for the block using EQ7.  I measure the template(s) that will be printed on Printable Treasures fabric (which you print on your inkjet printer), then I go into Photoimpact (in my case; any photo editing software) and that's when I start fiddling with what I'm going to print, i.e., get the size right, pour in some color that I might be trying to match to some real fabric that will be in the block, add some text, and things like that.  It can get detailed and sometimes I drive myself crazy with it and have to print a few times and that printable fabric isn't cheap.  Sigh.  But you all are familiar with Quilt Addiction.

I am just so very grateful that today begins my holiday from work until a week from Monday.  Thankful, thankful.
