back to blogging






The past few months have flown by! I've not gotten a lot of quilting done but I have been sewing. I made 4 more sail rigger bags for friends of my daughter but I forgot to take pictures. I made a professional tote that Jaime needed for her job, I think it turned out nice with lots of pockets and room. The fabrics are black and white.

Annie, Mary, and I went on a mini shop hop hitting 5 of the 12 shops on this year's Heart of KY hop. Mary had never been to the Gathering Room and loved it. I did damage at the Quilt Box buying lots of civil war fabrics. And wool! I found some beautiful wool at the Corner Quilt shop. I've been working on my wool block of the month and have made it to block 4! I'm also making a table topper that I got in Nashville from the Primitive Gatherings booth. I spent a lot of time and money there! Wool is wonderful to work with. I've also done some machine embroidery for work making shirts for the book club. And I spent time reading the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer and got everyone hooked on the books. So I guess I have been busy. I fell behind on some of my goals; I didn't get the pumpkin quilt or Christmas quilts quilted. Sooo many projects, life is good.
