cookeeeeeees.

Oor kid (my baby brother) turned 28 yesterday. He's had a resurgence in his golfing game (after a 12 year hiatus!) and had asked for golf related stuff for his birthday. Not one to miss an opportunity for random nonsense, the Chook and I proceeded to choose for him the most ridiculous club cover we could find. Enter the Cookie Monster!
I couldn't find any matching cuteness so I bought a plain golf bag towel and appliqued his Cookieness on it. Oor Kid was thrilled and figures if he's not known for his golfing prowess he'll at least be known for his cool towels. Heh.



The pony quilt is basted! I'll do a proper thank you round up when it's finished, 3 separate quilters have freely given fabric for it and need to be properly acknowledged. I thought you'd like to see how it's coming, though.



There's only one entrant in the loser giveaway (but what an entry it is!!). Are there no other cat-owning Arkansas Susans out there? *grins*

    Oh, the quilt looks wonderful! Is it still a secret from her? She is going to just love it.

    Your brother is a lucky guy, having TWO clowns looking after him, man, he's rich! Great golf stuff, Lynz. Funny, too.

    Man, the competition is stiff for the Loser's Giveaway... I am sweating bullets, worrying!

Hi! I'll try really hard to reply to comments by email (unless you're a no-reply Blogger in which case I can't!) because I love getting your messages but I'm a working mum and don't always manage - I read and appreciate every single one!
