hey there say, ... last project just got finished, just as scott had this awful injury... :(
but it is HIS turn now:

usually, when i can i send out a get well dreamcatcher, as they are 'knit together' and they remind me of the joint efforts and prayers and well wishes of everyone, as we send them out, to those hurting...

well, occasionally, like now, it turns into a long haul hard road (and back when blitzo was ill)...

so i got a 'your are loved quilt' as a daily reminder that we are all rooting for him... started now:

it's getting all the names on the squares now,
but: HUGE WOW, IDEA JUST HAPPENED!! as we were emailing:

HOLLY had the bestEST idea, just now!!!
if we could collect, from thrift stores, etc, or whatever,

1--ANY KIND of national park shirts...
2--any kind of sport logos, etc, that he liked...
3--favorite sport teams??
4--and even logo from favorite music or band...


i can cut those and SEW them onto the squares...
also, i am trying to get some gals i know to make a material
square of the supertopo logo...


and anyone that wants to make their own personal square, can
surely do this, too...

email, if you need my address to send any old shirt to me,
i DO have the regular squares, getting cut now... far to many
to embroider names on (nearly 400 names) so
i am using PERMANENT felt markers to get all the names on...

reds, greens and black... will still be nice...
so, any shirts to go with
holly's idea, if you happen to find any, or have old ones, etc...


wow!! would be very welcomed for scott's quilt...
(is not a fancy sewed classy thing, just a down to earth patchwork hug)...

thanks guys, so very much for whatever you can do...
:)

Great idea in the quilt, Neebee. I am not home but when I get back in a few days I'll let you know at once about a T-shirt. Have a couple special ones from the past. Cheers, Lynne

One more, neebee.I'd like to see more support for this program (and for neebee's quilt project) from you good and bad boys and girls, climbers or not, for this program.

Just one of many links, but you're big enough to find them on your own.

And thanks, neebee. Just thanks.

This is one of those quotes that has practically become my mantra. ")


Perhaps it could find a small spot somewhere on the quilt. I could paint it on fabric, if that would be better? Please just let me know. (And what size, too -- I can make it small, card sized, or t-shirt-sized depending upon what you need.)

Neebs, you've got the biggest heart ever and I hope that one of these days we'll get you to Facelift so that we can all give you a giant, Supertopo HUG!!! <3

hey there say, lilabiene... say, YES YES YES... please DO make this on material and send it...

i had to do the names with colored permanent markers, as, there was far to many to embroider... sure would have loved to embroider them, but it'd take months... (tried that for a cowboy themed tv show ep quilt, that i made, years back, for a thankyou gift to a gal)...

whew... :O



so, yes, please do... can you get it done and send, within a WEEK or so??


make it about, let's say, ONE HAND , and use the width like one-and-a-half width... does that make sense... and, if you have
perhaps 3??? other favorite sayings, or:
want to print this one FOUR TIMES...

so to balance each corner... you could DO that...

never hurts if the message is seen from any end of the quilt... :)
there is just no CENTER piece in this one...


it is in rows... i will balance out the art-themes by colors, etc...

and the saying of yours, can go at the beginning and ends of the
two rows, that are in between all the names... :)



does this sound good, if you can't do it... do about two... and i will gladly do the other two...

>:D<


yes yes yes yesssssssssssss--we have to meet!!!
you are in my heart and spirit, so deep, and after you even met a
dear friend of mine, wow, it MUST be MY turn, soon, :))

edit: maybe we can try to plan for next year facelift... however,
plans do not always work well for me, i just can't commit,
easily, due to the critter issues here, :O
but a rough outline of hopes, can be on the back-shelf, :)
