The Breast Cancer Awareness Designer Bandana Quilt Challenge.

When I got the package from Simplicity, I ignored these bandanas.
So I put them in the closet.
I read the paper before I make the quilt.

Rules:
* Must use our cherish Bandanas
* Must uses Simplicity Studio Tools: 30 and 45 degree triangles, 4.5", 6.5" Squares

Oh, I need the bandanas? Where are they? I needed looking for them in my closet.

They required a Digital image.

My bathroom Tragedy couldn't let me to do any work for long time.
My schedule was behind. I was mentally sick in many reasons.
---- I put the post of my bathroom in a couple of days, but I took it out.

I called Michele and asked, "I need a couple of more days! I need to send you the digital image, right? Then you will choose who can be in the challenge, right?"
She said, "Since you were the winner last year, just go ahead to make it."

Oh thanks!!!

Here is my idea on my sketchbook.
Here is my quilt.
See, it is different from my sketchbook..
I was so glad I could skipped a digital image.
I'm not a quilter. I didn't know where to go.

I lost my mother who suffered with Breast Cancer three years ago. My life has changed.

I had a mammogram in this year, and Dr. suspected I might have it. It was very scary moment waiting the result of biopsy. My friend had an operation in this year. My son's Aunt, Barbara is a survivor of Breast cancer.
During the process of making the quilt, I was thinking about my mother and my life, but I didn't cry.
Pink color and my fabrics supported me to finish.
It is a very happy looking quilt. I love the result!
I used to paint many "Blooming woman".
It was my appreciation of life as I was born a woman. We all got birth from the mother who produce milk. I'm glad I could give my milk to my son.
We need BOOBS!
I thought my blooming women could be in my quilt.
They were perfect to fit and symbols of hope on my quilt.

This quilt dedicated to my mother and people are suffering with the breast cancer.
I put all hope into my BOOBS!
God Bless us!

Thank you for the opportunity to make this quilt!
I did!!!! It made me strong. Believe in miracle!
Title of the quilt - "It's a miracle"
It will be at the Simplicity's Booth, The International Quilt Market in Houston.

Feeling of Nostalgia, Chocolates and Dots.

Lesley introduce my Joy Basket on her blog.

They are called "Joy Basket", by Hoodie. Some of them are large polka dots, but there are some that are more oblong, kind of like eggs, and some that are like an outline of a dot. I can see why she would call all these beautiful fabrics "Joy Basket." They bring me a lot of joy when I look at them and think of all the fun things I will be able to make with them. I started thinking about all the other "polka dots" that I've had in my life that have made me happy.

I love the way she wrote.　

When I was a little girl, I loved the dress had white dots on cherry red.
I believe my mother made it.
I was very happy whenever I wore the dress.
It had puff sleeves and round collars.

My Japanese friend's call Marble chocolate for my Candy Dots.
Marble chocolate is looks like m&m.
Chocolate box shape was like telescope. When we opened the cap, it made sound "PON"
There was small sticker of Atom (Astro boy) in the box. I collected them.
I wanted to see the sticker right way. I needed to take chocolates out from the box and put it them back carefully not to lose any chocolates.
I still remember the CM song.

Do you think I was thinking about my childhood when I made my candy dots?
I love my Candy Dots!!!!!

I collected polka dots dishes for a while. I realized I shouldn't collect them because they couldn't go anywhere in my kitchen.

I need more Dots in my life and make me happy..... really.
