This 'n that

So here's the newest robot addition to Gene's "stash". Isn't this a cutie? Any of you heard of a blue crab? I'm sure I have somewhere. Can you guess what he does? The crab walk!! Too cute. Okay Pat, I'm stumped. If you all read my blog note about the ice cream you will see that I mentioned my new fav as being Tin Roof Sundae. Wellllllllllllllllll, my sloanie friend Pat commented any ice cream with chocolate would do for her and she'd have even liked the Rocky Road I was serving!!!! She is psychic for sure as that's exactly what I served Gene that night. Oh my, I think she has a camera watching over us. Guardian angels are good though and a quilty one even better :-) Too funny, I want to know how you did that Pat, LOL! Yesterday was low key with a haircut in the morning, stopover at Wal-Mart and then home. I even managed to get a little sewing/cutting done on the mini blocks. I'm rather distressed that I got myself under such a crunch to get these done and now I find I don't have enough of the middle fabric to make all the blocks, grrrrrrrr. But here's what I'm working on..... Anybody have an idea for adding something special or some pizazz to each block? The other gals have done such fabulous applique blocks and fabric folding techniques. I feel like I'm contributing something very plain in contrast.
