In an earlier post I mentioned Penelope Garcia, the character on Criminal Minds. Because I was talking about her fashion choices I searched for pictures but didn’t find any of her more colorful outfits but I did find a couple of interesting items. First this short article and video. I am delighted to discover that Kirsten Vangsness is not very different from the character she plays.
I also found the Top Ten Garcia Quotes. Yes! She does have some great lines. Must have been hard to narrow it down to only ten. (More quotes)
While we’re talking about Criminal Minds, I have to mention that I think Agent Hotchner, played by Thomas Gibson, is just a wee bit creepy. If anyone ever makes a movie of the classic TV series Dark Shadows they really must get Gibson to play Barnabas Collins. Gosh… thinking about that, much as I dislike remakes of classics, now I really want it to happen.

Looking at the quilt top I’m currently piecing, I’m beginning to wonder if my color choices for quilts of late could not have been partially inspired by having watched Garcia on as many re-runs of Criminal Minds as I do.
Not that that’s a bad thing. But when I think about how when I first started quilting I was mostly about stuff like Civil War Reproduction Fabrics…my current choices are a huge departure.
