More frogs......

I didn't do any sewing yesterday to show so instead I'll show you the frog prints that didn't make the cut into the latest Stack and Slash quilt.  I sold more than half of my frog prints last year.  I may have kept a small amount of some of them in case I wanted to do another I Spy quilt. 
I have enough of this one for the back of the quilt.  The selvage says it is an Alexander Henry print from 1996 named "Mr. Toad gets dressed".  Now I think it looks a lot more like a frog than a toad.
The program went well last night.  I spent about an hour putting away all of the quilts while I watched "Castle".

I am thinking that I need to get out my stack and slash pattern, it will make a great college quilt for my daughter to take with her. Love the frog prints. So glad to hear that your program went well!!

I look forward to watching you frog quilt grow.
I'm glad your class went well.

Did you know that all toads are frogs, but not all frogs are toads?
I agree with you, that is a frog not a toad...toads are generally short bodied and stubby.

I don't know how I missed that Mr. Toad fabric way back when. I love it! Lucky you to have it.

So many cute frogs. I love Alexander Henry prints, always so unusual, yet gorgeous.

I love Castle as well, though wish they would get the romantic thing figured out. lol

I had this fabric! (mr Toad gets dressed)In 2001 I made a calendar quilt with a different fabric for each day and I included a piece of this for the day that my son was in the school play "Toad of Toad Hall"
