I added the black border ...
and that's when everything went wrong. The party came to a halt! There were police cars everywhere, officers spilling out of them and closing the area with their yellow tape. "Nobody moves! Hands up!"
"You are under arrest for having too much fun!"
I'm like what???? This cannot be!! I have to do something to help them, I mean, yes they are party "nuts" but who doesn't love the M&M clan? They can't be just thrown into jail!!
"Think, Chantal, think. You have to do something." I called Rebel on my eye-Phone.
"Here's how we'll do it. It won't be easy but we can do this."
So I started making some Pinwheels. (Can't afford a real helicopter!)
and I added them to the border ...
nonchalantly, like they belong there. Slowly I got closer to the M&M gang.
When no one was looking, I slipped them their getaway disguises. They have to dress up at the very last minute to avoid suspicion.
(I did the best I could with the little bit of time I had to find some costumes.)
Unfortunately, our plan came up short.
Not one to give up easily, Rebel tried again.
This time it worked. The tape broke and ...
the M&M hastily split.
Rebel had non-marked transportation waiting for them.
I mean, she had a means of transport for them. (Com'on! There's no way they could all fit inside General Lee!)
The important thing is that they all got away ...
... to another bash party near you.

Too funny, and a great happy quilt!
Love your fun quilt! Our window in the gift shop at the hospital was m and M themed...loved it too!
Creative border solution! I've got to know, though... Have you been sneaking writing lessons from Gayle?!?! LOL
Great job on the quilt top. so cute.
It was an absolute riot, fortunately with no casualties. M&Ms rule!
Adorable use of pinwheels. Every quilt needs a little whimsy. This one has so much happiness going on!
Such a fun post, Chantal, and great work on your *sweet* quilt! I love it!
That is too funny! What fun you have!
Congratulations on a sweet finish!
Great post a lovely RSC top. xx
Too funny! Thanks for the giggle - this quilt is so clever. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap!
Hilarious and clever - both your narrative and the quilt. But why am I craving chocolate now?
Ha ha what a great post. You must be so much fun to hang around with Chantal!
You are too clever for your own good. Since there are no M & Ms in the house, I'll have to settle for leftover birthday cake.
