The girls out did themselves selling tickets at the festival this weekend! The weather held up and the park was jammed with vendors and shoppers. Mr Wazoo and I went on Saturday morning to beat the heat. He bought another birdhouse for the yard and a new garden fairy from the metal working guy.
We couldn't get near the guild booth where the ladies were selling tickets like crazy.

| There's the raffle quilt! The booth was busy every time we went by! |

Today, I worked on making a customer tee shirt quilt. After cutting and prepping the shirts, I arranged them on the design wall and made the bicycle the customer requested. I added the sashing, but only sewed three rows together so I can sew down the bike without having to shove the entire quilt under the machine to manipulate it for applique. Hopefully, I will have the top done tomorrow.

| I arrange the shirts for size and color, then construct the bicycle from more shirts. |
 |
| All the rows are sewn, and the bike temporarily glued down. |

| Here is a closer look at the shirts in the bike. |
I guess the customer saw my other tee shirt quilt with a bike and thought it would be perfect for her son's quilt! He must love to ride...all but one shirt are from bicycle riding events.
