This is the first block of my new quilted wall hanging…. “A Day in the Life of a Diner Booth”….The name of the diner is Sam and Ella”s. There will be 12 blocks, with different people sitting in the same booth over a twenty four hour period…. one block for every two hours in the day.

I know the clock is missing the hour hand…that’s because I want to make all the blocks before I decide what time it is one each block. I think the time in this block will be 10:00am… Cops are having donuts while there is an APB out for escaped convicts. The convicts are running passed the widow while the cops eat their donuts. A lot more detail will be added when all the blocks are made….put together…and quilted.

Okay…I’m off work on my very tired waitress….time will most likely be 4:00am.

Thanks for the ideas some of you have already given me. I will be using them. I can still use ideas….If you think of something funny for one of the block..post it.

Looking forward to the next 11. Great idea on the second hand!

Sue…I’m going use your idea of a little mouse in the corner of the booth…..
Rocco…. I’m going use your idea …. the waitress will be smoking a cigarette,
It’s snowing big time here…I’ve been hoping for snow…..but I only wanted about 4 inches…..the weatherman is saying…this is the “big one” the big for us amyway…..up to 12 inches!!! I just hope our power stays on!

This is super cute. Only one thing. Is open spelled wrong? Looks like "opne" to me

Very cool!
