FANtastic



I've mentioned before how much I like my portable design wall.   One day last week, I decided to set  it up in the bedroom and lay out the blocks I've been piecing.  Fun!  I spent a lovely afternoon moving things around and arranging fabrics so there weren't random clumps of one color or similar prints lined up next to each other.

And then I got interrupted.  So what else is new.  And that night, because it was a rather warm summer night, I clicked the ceiling fan onto "high," and rolled over and went to sleep.


Yep, this is what I found in the morning. 

Oops.

  1. Ooooh-no! I like my portable design wall too---but, it's moments like this that remind you what it's capable of doing if you don't use some straight pins.
    I remember up at retreat when my flannel had a problem. Some sort of warp thing going on with it.
    Pat M. and I had carefully laid out her blocks (just like you did)--- it suddenly it came to life (warp speed!) and flung all the blocks across the aisles--everywhere!
    I've since got a new flannel for it.
    Maybe you took a picture? and can get the blocks all back in position. It's a beautiful design! I love all the colors with the white!

  2. Well yes indeed that made me laugh. I can't tell you how many times that has happened to me but the culprit has usually been a big black curious nose or an exuberant long brown tail!

  4. It's no longer FUNtastic, rather FANtastic. The fan blew it all away and messed it up.
