Yogi is hard at work doing a full inspection of the quilt. Another
proud QOV that is definitely a treat for the eyes.

Anybody want to know how many wrong ways there are to assemble that block?

This is just beautiful and it looks like Yogi is loving it too! Great
job, Polly! Donna

Wow! That quilt just sparkles -- the blue adds just the right touch. And
Yogi obviously approves; I'm so glad we got to see him signing off on
quality control. ;)

Well, I lost Yogi. Didn't really 'lose' him, but asked DH if he'd seen
Yogi. He wasn't in any of his usual napping spots or putting the Look on me
for a treat. Silly me. I might have known the QOV couldn't be shipped
without thorough inspection. Do you think I need to put a sticker on it
that says 'Inspected by ...' ? Polly

Wow! Love;ly stuff. I love the flashes of blue in the red and white
stars. Makes it that bit extra special.

Oh, please, please do, Polly. The soldier receiving it will just love
to have a chuckle about the inspection officer. (Don't forget to say
who Yogi is!).

It's a splendid quilt. Funny you should have said about the hazards of
putting the blocks together! I was looking at it and thinking the very
same thing before I read your post >g<
Beautiful piece of work.

This brought tears to my eye...you are a generous person. and yes, you
should put "inspected by: Yogi"
on the label. Soldiers dont have much to chuckle about overseas, that
would be a treat. and send along a picture of
Yogi!
Great job!

Absolutely gorgeous! And, no, I don't even want to think about how many ways
that block could be put together wrong! Will QOV let you send a picture
along with the quilt? What a great way to show "Inspected By"!

Only a sticker? We include our QI right on our labels.

Title (if it has one)
Designed by [Doc]
Crafted by [Mrs. Doc]
Inspected by [Boomer] (soon to be Fudgy)

I think the pic is a great idea. Whether or not it's allowed, since
we embroider our labels, I'll talk to the construction mgr about
adding our embroidered Fudgy head to our labels. I'm sure there are
Yorkie patterns out there too if Polly were so inclined (and/or goofy
as us... ;-) Where there's a will, there's a way.

WOW! The quilt is GREAT! And darling Yogi is as majestic (and cute) as
ever as he inspects your latest. Thanks for sharing.

I'm sure you didn't find ANY wrong ways to assemble that block! :) It

Another beautiful QOV! Well done, Polly! Kudos to you for doing this
important work.

I'm glad to see that Yogi is giving it a thorough inspection. :-)

Best regards,

Absolutely! The work our QI's do is much better than the anonymous #12.

Howdy!

Perky, the quilt & the inspector.
Way to go, Polly. I esp. like the scattering of blues &
scrappy triangles that keep the eye moving, makes
the quilt "wave". Perky, yeah.

Actually, the quilt doesn't wave quite as much as it appears to
post-inspection. A part of the procedure includes a sort of Irish Jig plus
a roll or two. Does Yogi care how carefully I blocked it? Naaaaah. Polly

I'm probably going to do a label with at least laundering instructions.
Might as well add a picture of the QI. Polly

I think the flashes of blue are what prompted me to try that pattern. It's
from Fons & Porter. I am far too weary to go find the designer's name but
she tossed in a bit of blue and it does keep it from being predictable.
