Timmy Turtle

" I knew you'd have to make me, " said Timmy with a grin.
" Umm. I think it was that 10th rendition of "100 Diet Coke Bottles, sitting on a wall", that forced me into it," said I.
"You shouldn't drink so much of that stuff," said Timmy. "It's left big holes in the grey stuff in here. Did you know there isn't too much of that gray stuff left?"



Here are Timmy's pattern pieces, once more my favourite design material A4 paper.



He's made from scraps. The flippers are made from the backing of the quilt I'm currently working on. The quilt is now quilted and the binding is on and Melissa has given me the ok to show it off on the blog and ..you'll just have to wait until tomorrow to see it. I'm still appliqueing in the center panel.

"I look very handsome" said Timmy smuggly admiring himself in the mirror.
"Yes, you'll make a great pin cushion, Timmy," said I with a wicked grin.

"WHAT!!!" screeched Timmy in a not so small voice.

Until tomorrow,
HooRoo
