Good Tuesday Morning

Hello ladies -

I'm sitting at work, dreaming of working on my quilt! I've been working on a paper-pieced wall-hanging. I'm using batiks and it has a scrappy look. Even Ryan (my almost 15 yo) likes it.

I also got back two quilts from Lisa that I need to bind, my turquoise "coffee" quilt and my pink & green cherries quilt. Both of those will count as finished UFO's if I can get them bound.

Needless to say my quilt room is calling me. I have a long car drive coming up this weekend, maybe I can get the bindings sewn on so I can tack them down in the car?!

I'd love to hear what everyone else is working on...

Vickie update from Sisters!

Hello from Sisters!  Betsy and I are watching a Spencer Tracy & Katherine Hepburn movie, but we're not even sure what the title is...

I just got an update from Vickie Isley that her website is up for her quilt shop in North Carolina.  She has her Christmas fabric on it so far, with the hopes of getting the rest of the 2,000 bolts up soon.


Happy Shopping

Sue

we'll post about the quilt show tomorrow (if we still have any energy!!!)

P.S. 7/18 - Here is Betsy's post about the show.

First Post!

I thought I'd try this blog format - much easier posting than the website! We'll see how it goes! I tried to link to all the original info on the right hand side. Also, you all can add comments if you'd like! That's kinda fun!

We had fun at last group - Diana should win a prize for most UFO quilts completed in a month! What a star! We had fun making bowls with Barb! I got so involved in making one that I totally neglected to take any pictures of us doing it!



Next Friendship Quilting Day is Saturday, July 19th, and next group meeting is Monday, July 28th. No, your rows aren't due, but we'll have the big "reveal" at the August meeting - plan to be there - it should be fun!!

More about this blog soon!
