Remember, a few blogs ago - I offered this fabric for a giveaway?
I loved it when I bought it, but then just couldn't figure out what to do with it, and obviously, it has to end up with just the right person - not something you send out on a charity quilt, given people's varying sensitivities...The 'deal' on the giveaway was that my DH was going to pick the comment with the most interesting plan to use the fabric!
So - Marjorie , of Applique Addict - http://appliqueaddict.blogspot.com/
won by sending in a comment that she would use the fabric to make a shirt for her DH, who rides a skull-themed Harley!!
Well - Marjorie does NOT procrastinate - and here's the shirt:
ISN'T IT JUST WAY COOL ???? iT'S A TRUE PARTY SHIRT...
AND - another fun twist... Marjorie wants to send the 'remainders' to someone else on the comment list - they will make great fussy-cut pieces to mix in with other fabrics... as you see here:
So - I asked DH to choose - and he picked Victoria of Bumblebeans, Inc. - who said she had a partly-finished Day of the Dead quilt that needed to be finished!
Well, Victoria - these lovely party-goers are yours! Please send me an address... I will send you an email from your post...
Thanks, Marjie - for being such a fun sport on this giveaway!..
I think this is the only photo of a man with a beer that has been posted on my blog!!
Parties to All,
Kate

That is just tooo fun!! She wasted no time at all...
For the record...I procrastinate a lot...just not when it's something fun. One of my FB friends is referring to it as the "Oingo Boingo Bowling Shirt". How often do you get a chance to make a shirt with its own theme song? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iypUpv9xelg
I love stories like this--just too much fun!
