Chinese Whispers

[Norma H.]

Well done, Rita.

[Lois B.]

Ahem! 'Scuse me for interrupting.....but.....drumroll please......I AM FINISHED MY CHINESE WHISPERS QUILT. :mrgreen:

Wendy, I have sent you an email with a photo. The real thing is to follow tomorrow or Monday.

Lois, thanks for the update from Limbania. Good to know she's over the worst of it now and staying healthy.

I am with you it is such a very good feeling to be finished. 8) 8) 8) :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Renata L.]

Congratulations, Rita! Wow, 25 days... I guess that's well within the 30 days I had predicted... :lol: I remember when you did Chocolate Decadence for IFQOI... I was amazed back then at how quickly you pulled that one together so I was confident that this time, with CW, you'd be done in record time. You didn't believe me, did you, Wendy? I am truly impressed, Rita. Good on you!

With photo in hand, your wheels must be turning, maybe spinning, eh, Wendy? I hope you are as excited as the rest of us were to start our part of this journey together. You are so wonderfully creative, have a great sense of color and composition, I so look forward to seeing your masterpiece too. Fair winds and following seas to you too, dear Wendy!

[Nancy R.]

Wow, Rita, you are a superstar!!! Good luck, Wendy! I know you'll produce something that's incredible!!

Nancy

[wendy w.]

Aw Renata and Nancy thank you, yes my head is spinning and luckily with lots of ideas. I hope I can live up to your expectations and do the rest of you justice.

Rita's work is always so impressive it's so exciting following her. Your quilt is set as my desktop now Rita. Anyone want a look :lol: :twisted: :lol:

[E.M. T.]

Well ! Of course, Wendy ! I bet it would look good on my desktop, too !! :mrgreen:
And Rita...speedy production !! Good goin'.
Lorna , look out !....Wendy might be flyin' too ! :shock:

[Lorna B.]

Rita, we'll call you SuperSewist. Or something like that. Congrats on finishing.

Don't feel rushed, Wendy. No need to beat her record. Take your time.

Lorna

[wendy w.]

Don't worry Lorna, I design as I go along so there's no flying through a quilt for me You've got just over 52 days, but I do feel inspired it could end up a lot less :lol:

[wendy w.]

Oh Lummy! at this rate My CW quilt will reach Maureen faster than Lois's ops: - I guess that will be my job to deal with on Monday (at work tomorrow). Blowed if I have seen the wrapper it came in orginally recently though.

[Rita C.]

Thanks everybody - but you haven't seen the quilt yet, maybe when you see it you won't be surprised at how quickly I finished it. :wink: :roll:

Wendy I wish you all the best too, I love what you do so I am certain you will come up with something truly original.

Rosemary, want to race your quilt to Maureens? I will post yours tomorrow and you post Lois's on Monday and lets see how long it takes will we? Anybody else still got a quilt or a label or their 100 words to send to Maureen? Want to get in on the race? :lol:

Okay, I am getting giddy now, must be time for a drink, hic! :lol:

I was just going to say to Rosemary that I hadn't thought about getting hers before Lois's but I love your idea of a race. Lots of labels and 100 words still to come. On your marks, get set - go go go. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Don't feel rushed, Wendy. No need to beat her record. Take your time.

Lorna

Oh, NO, Lorna. Since I read your post I can't get the Chad Mitchell Trio out of my mind. I realize the only direct link is the word "super", but I had Rita "comin' down that slope doin' 90 miles an hour" as soon as I read it! Sorry... I may need a little more sleep, myself!

[Renata L.]

Too funny, Charae... when I saw your "comin' down that slope doin' 90 miles an hour," I immediately thought of Harry Chapin, "30,000 pounds of bananas"... and for anyone who does not know that song, here are the lyrics http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.n...256CAA002DE7FE and here is the background to the story: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30,000_Pounds_of_Bananas

[Rita C.]

My, how we wander! :lol: Quite frankly I think you are all bananas, and I am off to my bed now. Good night.

[Lois B.]

Okay, everyone. I am inspired. I need to write my 100 words before I completely forget everything about designing and constructing my quilt. I was confused about the label. I think I got lost somewhere in our discussion about labels and I was thinking there we were all going to have the same label designed by Rosemary. But I will get on with the label as well.
