Been Busy How About You?

 

This is a new row quilt in progress. Thought I would give you a quick peek. I design as I go. I put things on my design wall and make a few blocks to audition. I love the saying on this. I found it on my trip to The Woolen Willow in West Virginia.

"Be True, To Yourself, Your Word, Your Friends!"

So I think I will name this row quilt "Be True". There will be some pieced and some appliqued blocks.

 

I am working on another picture and it will be called "On The Farm"

 

"For The Guest Room".  I love the textures in this new quilt. Lots of plaids and woven fabrics were used to make this one.

 

I leave for Brazil on Wednesday and I am so excited. My girlfriend has asked me to speak to about 150 women about quilting. That should be interesting since I don't speak Portuguese, but as we all know quilters speak with pictures and their hands. Geoff is more than capable of running the business while I am gone. He is busy getting patterns written and he seems to be "happy" doing it. lol

 

Thanks for stopping by. I promise to have a great giveaway when I return. We all need another "gifty".

 

Great Visit With Pat Sloan

The podcast interview with Pat went well. She is a wonderful lady to visit with.  If you would like to listen here is the link:

I am working on several new hand projects to take with me on my long plane ride to Brazil. I leave next week and I can hardly wait. Geoff has been working feverishly on getting the new patterns ready.

Three new quilts from the quilter are ready for pick up this morning. I can hardly wait to see them. Isn't it amazing how after they are quilted they even look better? I enjoy doing bindings so that is what I will be doing tonight. The weather here is feeling more and more like fall and it makes me want to snuggle in to a little handwork and watch tv by the fire.

Hope you have a wonderful day and I will chat with you again soon!

 

"Pray Often" Coming Soon

I just got back from my cabin. It was so peaceful and quiet. I didn't want to come back.  I stitched this new picture while I was away. I think it says it all. "Pray Often" will be a new pattern available soon.

 

Today is my podcast so I'm a bit nervous but  anyone that knows me knows I like to chat. I will just talk to Pat like I am having a cup of coffee with her. I will be on at 2pm mountain time. If you want to check it out visit her podcast website.

 

Thanks for all your support my friends! Life is good! Take care and have a great day!
