I have brushed the dust of my dolls quilt for the flickr swap. I have echo stitched in white around the birds and the branches of the tree's. Something is still lacking though, the white is too white although I usually love white. I need some texture, I'm thinking of stippling really tight squiggles? Or maybe bubbles? Quilted white bubbles? I have to pin it up and ponder for a few more days till the lightbulb goes off.
But the deadline to post is fast approaching at the end of this month and this baby may be going overseas so I may have to post it earlier......I have a question to ask that I have been meaning to ask for ages. Does my blog banner at the top there go out of the box on the right??? I am puzzled cause it does in Firefox but not in Explorer. Just a quirk on my monitor or is this happening worldwide??

The quilt is looking wonderful, I am no help in what to do with the white...
And yes, your banner is hanging out to the right. I had not noticed it until you pointed it out.
Same for me, it's hanging out the side (with Firefox).
I just watched Mamma Mia for the first time and am in love!!
You have a beautiful blog!! My first visit. And you make a lot of beautiful quilts!!I will be back soon! Greetings from Juliann in Norway
How about a couple little small chicks/birds just embroidered in red on two of the other white stripes, facing different directions - as though mama bird lost her brewd!!
Out of the box for me too but I'm on Firefox as well. Chocolate is definitely in the dairy food group
Out of the box for me as well, I am using Explorer 7.
cute doll quilt! It is going out of the box for me. I am using Mac OS X with Firefox 3.0.8.
beautiful quilt.
yeah, the banner goes out of the box.

Oooh, I agree with Margaret. A few little birdies stitched in red would send your quilt into cute overload.
and the banner hangs over when viewed with Safari also
bubbles, i think. great quiltie!
I think bubbles would be lovely. You are right though, it needs something. Banner off to the right here too, using firefox
Hiya,
It's hanging out of the box for me too (on Opera).
My girls (5 and 4) love Mamma Mia ...
Grace, this is your Aunty Add, your favourite Aunty, the one who bought you the umbrella and raincoat and cool Barbie with a cat for your birthday. Grace, you need to STOP watching Mama Mia, it will rot your brains I tell you! I will buy you a cool DVD like Nadia or HSM or whatever you want, just promise me NO MORE MAMA MIA! Love Aunty Add xx
oh yeah, out of the box for me too, know idea if we have firefox or explorer or ??
Yes, it hangs out of the box and I have Explorer. Maybe it's because you haven't set the box to the same pixel width as the banner graphic(if it were in FrontPage that would likely be the problem), but not sure how the blogger stuff works, really.
Wow, love the bird and the quilting! I'd be inclined not to fill the white, I do like Margaret's suggestion. Maybe a small stipple on the tree itself though if you want more quilting?
