95: Obama. the BZB 2009 Raffle Quilt, and Tootsie Pops
Well, no Barry Obama isn’t sponsoring the Busy Bee’s 2009 Raffle quilt but he might be the president when it is won by someone! As for the “song” shown…..come on, admit it, you thought the same thing when you heard his name the first time! I can hear it clearly now, more than ever!
Here is the quilt as originally designed by me in EQ5…the setting triangles and corners will have red applique in them, but we have not settled on what that will be yet. Probably some birds and flowers and leaves and such. Raffle tickets will probably be available next spring, so start saving up there, folks!
Our first entry is on the project page for the Tootsie Pop Quilt Challenge. So get signed up, make your own version, send me a jpeg, and get ready to be in the competition for some great prizes! That’s all for now folks, gotta work on a doll quilt for a swap, and a quilt to submit to a magazine for pulishing. Tootles!

i am from the chicago area, so have heard his name forever, and i must admit i never thought of that! which is strange because i usually think of these kind of things. but thanks (she says sarcastically) now i will think of that everytime i hear his name from now on!!
