WELCOME to day 6 of........

GASTLIE BLOG HOP

I was thrilled, over the top excited when Mme Samm Ghastlie asked me to be part of the
1st Ghastlie Blog Hop.
 Welcome to our 1st Annual Ghastlie Blog HOP

If you have this thing for Ghastlies
and they have tied you in a knot
and you wish you could get them out of your mind
than this may be a thought.
We heard her plea for a cure
Mdm Samm was pos/it/ively sure
that we could stitch the nights away
in hopes that we MAY----
( all 53 of us)
BUT....

The side effects are Ghastlie
there is no mistaking too.
if you don't run this very minute
YOU too will catch the FLU...
We suspected all along
this was her master plan
she did not want to be alone,
with all YOU Ghastlie FANS...


 I have been suffering from the nasty Ghastlie flu
for some time now, about a month actually, and think I've found 'the cure'.
....please come and see what has been ailing me.......
Ghastlie Collection 2011

and here is a closer look of all the Ghastlie meds that cured me....
a canvas bag....
with a pink lining and lots of pockets.

a table runner
...it is a variation of the table runner by sherri at A Quilting Life.
It is a free tutorial on sherri's blog.
It is so easy to make.......
you can even make it with 4 blocks and it would be a perfect size!!

a lunch bag
It is a 'Favorite Things' pattern designed by Kimberly Gladman
I made a few moderations to the original pattern.
