Duck Do, Color and Quilting

Walked past the table and noticed the Rubber Ducky had been to 
Megan's Beauty Parlor for a new do....
 ...did you know Play Dough comes in black and brown colors now?
Now for some colo......cat, please get out of the way....
 ...come on Precious...please let me get the shot....
 .....Cat Cloud {$#%%^T%*&}....
 Anyway, the girls were getting low on useable pens, so I decided to get some new ones.
And then it happened....the 64 box of heavenly crayons is joined by a box of 64 Pip Squeak Markers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! .....and there was no way. No. WAY. I could pass that up.
I noticed we needed some new Sharpies too, the last few years I have only gotten them for College Girl, not myself.  The paints are for other ideas I  have, they are acrylic, not 
fabric paints.
 Quilting.
 I would like to get this Red, White and Chocolate quilt done for Ashley, especially since she still wants it!   The yarn thing....on the safety pin....that's a block marker....I don't use a hoop, which is an ideal way to find your place.  So I made up a marker because I spent valuable stitching time trying to figure out where the hell I was.
 I use the small washable pens on fabric...for marking them for quilting.
X's and O's.
 Took down X-mas, but left a few wintery bits out. This is an igloo I am making from a soda bottle.....if it ever gets finished.  
 Updated to Picasa 3 the other day and noticed a few additions to the 'edit' choices....
