...and on my guest room bed for scale. I'm thinking I need to make a quilt for above this bed, but that's another day.
Tonight's dinner is Veal Saltimbocca from (yes you guessed it) Giada De Laurentiis (here's the link to the origional recipe Chicken Saltimbocca). I haven't made this before, but her recipes are always super yummy. I was at Target last week and was so excited to see that she has her own line of cookware. I bought this awesome scoop strainer thingy that she uses to scoop out pasta. I can't wait to try it. I love how the holes look like flowers.
Tomorrow I'm off to Rochester, NY for my quilty one-yard wonder weekend. I can't wait!!! My mom gave me this mega bag from Lands End a few Christmases ago and it can hold my sewing machine, notions, rulers AND my One-Yard Wonders book. I feel a bit like Mary Poppins.

The T-shirt quilt looks great, your cousin will love it. It will be great for a residence hall room and will brighten the room up. I'll have to check out the recipe and the scoop. That looks interesting. Have fun at your quilty weekend, it really sounds like fun!

Have loads of fun this week-end, and tell us all about it next week! ---"Love"

There is no such thing as a quilt that is too big! (The bed is obviously too small.) It's a great quilt and I'm sure your cousin will be pleased. Is it a suprize?
Dinner sounds wonderful.
What's in the black and pink bag? Don't forget your umbrella...Mary Poppins did have one of those, right?!
The t-shirt quilt top is awesome! I totally agree - too big is better than too small. He is going to LOVE it.
Your cousin is going to absolutely LOVE this quilt, I can't wait to see what your quilter will come up with.
I think I've made a saltimbocca once, but it was good. The strainer thingy looks great!
Enjoy your course, you'll have to tell us all about it. :o)
Your t-shirt quilt is perfect, looks like a pattern cover. Great job.

The t-shirt quilt looks great.
Awesome quilt! It would be really great if a basketball quilting design could be worked out. Great work, Stitch!
Great job on the T-shirt Quilt! I agree, bigger is always better in a quilt :)
Enjoy your quilty weekend, Mary Poppins - but remember to stash enough fabric in there too. -Joanne
That T-shirt quilt could fit a few freshman! It looks terrific and will be a big hit with your cousin for sure. The strainer is fabulous adn veal saltimbocca delicious. Have fun at the wonder-weekend - your bag certainly does the job. Ann :-)
Mary Poppins...that's funny;) The t-shirt quilt is great and I am sure your quilter will come up with the perfect pattern for it;)
Enjoy yourself and Happy Quilting!!!

I love that t-shirt quilt. I am still kicking myself for throwing out all my old sorority t-shirts instead of saving them to make a quilt!
And I, too, and obsessed with Giada's recipes. She just knows how to do delicious!
