I saw an ad for Chick-Fil-a the other day that asks people to come to any of their restaurants dressed up like a cow and they would get a free meal. (July 14, next Tuesday) Fun, huh? It reminded me of some Benartex fabrics called
Green Farms that I have that are perfect for this.
While this is not a new collection, it is from this year. And my mind started planning. Do you think Chick-Fil-a would give me a meal if I came in with a quilt? Hmmmm?
Here are two blocks of the 16 I've already sewn. These are simple cobblestone blocks and will finish to 9". I'll keep you posted.

| Block #1 - 4" center square; 2-1/2" outer strips (cut 3") |
 |
| Block #2 |
Here is a digital image for my border. This is going to be a very simple quilt which will end up making some little child happy. Will it make Chick-Fil-a happy?

It would sure as heck make me happy. I'm cow crazy. It's one of my collections along with flamingos,poodles and Betty Boop!

PS I had a class with you in Annapolis. Remember me? The beautiful one, who made perfectly pieced quilts? lol
Hey Debby - great minds think alike - I'm finishing up a cow/farm quilt too. Maybe we can hit the restaurant together ! ;)

I am sure they will honour their free meal deal a great idea for using your cute fabric and will make a little one very happy
ReplyDeleteThis is too funn. Go for the free meal, if the manager is there I bet you will get a free meal. Plus, casually mention your blog and the fact you gave them free publicity. Now, why do I have a clown costume instead of a COW costume?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see if it works. My grandkids love the Cow Appreciation Day.
ReplyDeleteIf there were a Chick-Fil-a on my side of the state let alone in my state, I would try it.
ReplyDeleteI love the cow fabric and your little quilt.
Super cute fabrics. Debby ~ all you would need to do is pin some of the quilt blocks to your clothing and you'd probably be good for the free meal next week.
ReplyDeleteDebbie you have a regular dairy farm going in that material lol...be careful those cows will have you out milking morning and night lol
ReplyDeleteLet us know..we will all be making that cool quilt
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute! Go for it and happy eating.
ReplyDeleteMuch easier to look at one at a time. LOL
