Olympic Quilts

My spousal Unit (bless his heart) said I was crazy, well he didn't say it he just gave me that look.
 When I opened my P&G Holiday ( Oh ummm #PGemployee) gift box there was a lovely blanket in there. It's soft and bright. I love it.
 I said to my DH, I love the print on this fabric, it looks like a faux quilt. I wonder if it will be the design for the Olympics this winter? Remember this was back in...December-I blogged about it here.
Well imagine my delight/surprise when I viewed the olympic coverage last week.

Look in the background...see it in a purple colorway?

Look there it is in blue!

Look at the Slope Style venue, it's in pink!

And at the speed skating venue too! I love this diamond patchwork quilt design!
And a quick Google shows that I'm not the only one, look at the stuff you can buy with this print...

Hamel's Fabrics blogged about it here. How cool is that!!!

Olympics and P&G

So if you haven't been living under a rock you know that the 2014 Olympic games are starting on February 7 in Sochi Russia. P&G, my employer (#pgemp), is sponsoring many athletes around the world. They are continuing their award winning Thanks Mom campaign, and I wanted to share this latest video. Get a tissue.

Where Have You Been?

What a good question!
I have been watching the Olympics....

Booking a Hotel for our upcoming weekend in St Louis....

Sewed a couple of more of the Retro Flower quilt blocks....Love the nook tablet for videos!

Found this video that tells how to make curved pieces easily without pinning. Thanks to She Can Quilt dot com.

Stocked up on Ketchup at HyVee-Only 77cents a bottle!

And working....

That's about it.

P&G Thanks Mom Campaign

So, If you watch this video and don't at least smile with a tear in your eye...well I dunno, but it's a winner!
