Happy.......Birthday! I didn't even notice until Roxy pointed it out.....

When you saw the word HAPPY on my Make A Wish AAQUI quilt....
Did you think of the emotion.....
or the exclamation, "Happy Birthday!"

(Do you love the teeny tiny feather?......I could not believe that Roxy pulled this one off!)

My use of this text fabric was to share the emotion of the princess but then last night as Roxy I embellished her world...I began to think of my sister's birthday coming up and thought, "Hmmmm, Happy Birthday, Sharon" and then I thought....happy on your birthday, happy I made it to another birthday...will be happy when this birthday is over...is it a HAPPY birthday?...
Why don't I feel happy on this birthday....and my favorite at a restaurant when all the servers come out clapping..."HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!....."
div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Isn't it interesting how one word can insinuate so many thoughts and emotions with the words you pair it with....

All quilted and tomorrow will be bound...BOUND for the auction!!!!! Hope you have enjoyed my story hour the past couple of days and just remember...if you enjoy the quilting of this tiny quilt....grab a project and get DONNING YOUR BIG GIRL PANTS and quilt quilt quilt!

Happy TOOsday, Em

Happy Toosday to you, too! How DID Roxy manage that feather?!! Wonderful job, Em! It should do so very well at the auction!

It could be Ha! Pea! - something I might exclaim when searching the vines in my garden for something to eat. Or Hap-E - some kind of new age rave.... I think that Roxy is very happy with the wonderful quilting she is doing these days.

Hoppy....from the frog's point of view. Birthdays can come with lots of emotional baggage...there's soooo much going on in this quilt!!! Lots of movement...like time...LOVE IT!

I thought of the lyrics from Sister Act:
"Oh happy day...oh happy DAY!..."
(I love that movie!)


{My verification word is: "codoer" - that what we are!! Co-DOERs!!! LOL}
