Actually a cute idea. Guess Stanley was lucky he did not have an encounter with a rotary cutter or got all stitched up. You are a good person to take on this homework assignment. By the way, I just adore you designs and colors. You are a very gifted artist!Willeke O'http://fanaticalfroebeler.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6383797470400413055.post-36421505029378779342011-02-15T19:44:32.714-06:002011-02-15T19:44:32.714-06:00what a fun quilt!

We took Stanley to Barbados, brought him back to Vancouver, then shipped him back to Toronto with photos. My kids were little, so they thought it was really fun and we had never heard of the book before, so in general it was a hilarious experience for us!Poppyprinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08251892807966340175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6383797470400413055.post-2294161318665813292011-02-12T15:33:24.511-06:002011-02-12T15:33:24.511-06:00You were lucky!

If you want Stanley to see Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, you can send him to us at Mrs. Stradinger<br />Rockwell Elementary School, 821 Monroe St., Fort Atkinson, WI 53538<br />I'll show him around the town and send him back.<br />P.S.

She gave Stanley to my parents who proceeded to lose their digital camera (not sure how) in the process of photographing Stanley.

We had never heard of the book here! Our flattie was Flat Dan as the senders had been asked to make them in their own image and he was bigger than yours. Needless to say he had a great visit to Australia and while he caused my kids some embarrassment he was photographed in many interesting places like the beach, native bush and at sports, and also with some iconic foods as we took him with us at Christmas!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02086725179906921510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6383797470400413055.post-16544836377554329802011-02-11T17:35:01.967-06:002011-02-11T17:35:01.967-06:00oh, that is TOO funny!
