Callin it a UFO finish..well, ok...sorta!

Okie dokie folks, I usually don't have many UFOs, butt this one sooo qualifies.  I think I started it at least 2yrs. ago. I made the pieced area quickly, but I just don't get around to applique... I used the freezer paper method, as I don't know how to needle turn, and I figure that would hurt my hands too much anyhoo...
I'll post it as an "official" Blackberry Creek UFO finish when I get the last border on...

Closing at a quilt shop...

Here is what I strongly suggest if any of ya'll EVER work during a quilt shop's closing sale..DON"T!...
lol...Yup, I had fun. worked hard, and most likely paid off all my "tab" at the shop...BUTT..Oh my butt! Seriously, I'm goin to the chiropractor...gah,
My 1st ever case of sciactica (sp?)...I've not been able to sit N sew at all for almost a week = B O R E D!
Tomorrow will be the 2nd chiro appt. this week, and I hope to be back to semi normal next week, just in time for the UFO challenge at Blackberry Creek !
If anyone can tell me how to change how my blog comes up, lemme know. Right now its "GaelT." but I want it to come up as Pink-a-Palooza...Thanks!
