What a day, seems like ALL my days are crazy these days. Take today for example, I get home from the grocery store to find my sewing room all in a mess and Curt standing there with needle and thread hanging from his mouth. Better yet, take a look at this photo I took. AinÂ’t he something! If I didnÂ’tÂ’ love cows so much I might just have to sell himÂ…..NOT! HereÂ’s his explanationÂ….
Curt saw me making some patches for the holes in my work shorts so he thought heÂ’d needed to try something. Took my scraps and made a quilted banner of letters that just happen to spell out CURT. He is always trying to find ways to promote himself. hehe
You can tell he is getting up in age his eyes look all crazy from doing all that close up work. Good thing he has glasses! Oh and did you notice what he did to all his spots? Had then Zentangled, thought theyÂ’d go good with the quilt theme and all. My on my that Curt is some cowÂ…..Â…Â…my cardÂ….
The quilted bg is a gelli print with added doodle lines. Drew Curt and added his Zentangles at his request. Coloring done with copics.
Well, have to go pick up some cartridges for a pool tomorrow, will return soon. Hope everyone is having a super day.......TFL :0)

Love your gelli BG and the doodled blocks, Beautiful! Curt's quilted letters are a perfect way to introduce him to the uninitated. Who wouldn't love a crazy-quilt zentagle cow showing up? Thanks for sharing your creativity, Cathy. I'd love to watch your creative juices flow in person! Hugz.

Cathy, Curt never fails to amaze me with all his talents - not only can he spell - which is quite an accomplishment, he can quilt as well. I hope he is careful with that thread across his snout - we wouldn't want him to get thread burn!

Too bad I didn't have Curt spell "quilting" for me. I just noticed I spelled it wrong on this card title. hehe :0)

I just love your Curt stories and Curt cards. He is one special cow for sure! He needs to meet up with my Hereford ladies!! I love that he "assisted" you in making this card. It's so nice to have a man, oh I mean, a cow, around the house!!!!

Cathy, you never cease to amaze me - Curt really got into this teaparty - I am sure his quilting antics will bring smiles to Karin and her family - certainly not quilting the way they are used to seeing!!! Thanks for the smiles today with your favorite cow!!
