Barn Kids Green
Quilt! Help!?

About a year ago, I was leafing through a Pottery Barn Magazine. I saw a beautiful quilt, but, since I had just remodeled my bedroom, I dismissed it as a beautiful, but unnecessary item. Well, I am redesigning my bedroom again, and would like to use that quilt. The problem is, it is discontinued, and I cannot remember it's name. Its an island themed quilt, (not Pottery Barn kids) its like vintage hawaii themed, with palm trees, hawaii flowers. its colors include reds, pea greens, aquamarines, camel/tans, and vanilla like colors. It's stitched with squares, but inside the sqaures are stitched flap-like things. Please!!! Somebody help....if anyone knows at least the name of the quilt that would be great!

Have you guy's seen the TOYOTA commercial where....?

.....the car slowly turns into dust and the voice over say's "Toyota impacts nothing".?
It's a 'green/earth' commercial but I thought it was funny being a Stock Car fan didnt you?.....From a competition and durability standpoint.

I mean, I wouldn't mind having a Chevy sitting in the weed's for 40 year's in the back pasture or in the barn because my Grand kids would eventually pull it out and restore it after I'm gone!

I guess you can't do that with a Toyota. The Toyota shortly turn's to dust.
It's all fun and games and a good ribbing for me.
It just struck me as funny. I have a very dry sense of humor. lol.

Their engines might last for 2 or 3 hundred thousand but not the bodies. I'm with ya on that. Gimme a late model Camaro with a good old fashioned 4 barrel carburetor. Good at least for a cruise or two on the weekends for the shows. Something to pass down from generation to generation. You'd need a dust pan and broom for a Toyota!!!!

I think the commercial is hinting that Toyota will leave the others in the dust. Maybe they will. Hope not. Time will tell. I like our version of events much better!!
