The RHLC!

How awesome, MBM! Well, it could've been a different Richard, but since it did sound like our guy, it might have been...

Quite a very cool surprise there!

Who knows? I'd think that'd be more of a question for the Workshop people.

Speaking of fleece, quilt update: We've got all of Richard's name, date and epitaph panels quilted on. Sweetums and Statler are pretty much done, except for some additional thatching on Sweetums, we've got a preliminary Beaker, Janice is in progress and we're getting ready to start on Scooter's jacket. So we're still plugging away at it.

I've also got a letter typed up for the quilt people, and we've got the forms printed out. They recommend shipping it by FedEx or UPS or one of those guys.

That's rully great, Erin. I love hearing your updates... you guys are making such great progress!

 

[Fragglemuppet]

Oh good. Sure, being covered in all manner of food and beverage was fun,

but I'm glad to have the chance to talk seriously again. At least, as serious as we can get here...

Wow, that's really great that you've made all that progress on the quilt, Erin!

Update, round 2, after three hours and a few pricked fingers:

We now have most of Scooter on the panel. All we need to do is sew down his hands, embroider the cuffs and piping on his jacket, put some stitching on his ears and he'll be done.

I see we've cleaned up most of the pastry detritus...but there are still a lot of ants here and the floor's sticky.

 

[Fragglemuppet]

Oh my, so it is! Well, I'll just be off to bed now... See you tomorrow?

Another update: Yesterday I started embroidering the piping and cuffs onto Scooter's jacket, and Mom's going to sew down his hands and work on his shirt. Beaker is partially attached; we need to modify his nose and make his lab coat. Janice still needs to be attached.

Are we going to get any pictures of this wonderfull quilt?

 

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Yes, as soon as I figure out how to upload them. And as soon as I can borrow my dad's digital camera for about five seconds (for the men in this family are such photo junkies; when we went to England last spring the cameras were up in front of their faces almost constantly).

 

[Beauregard]

(Well, I went away for one week and between the four of us we got over 1,000 digital pics so I guess I can't comment Where in England did you come, by the way?)
