Just ahead - a taste of spring...

Hey, girls.....I hear it's going to be at least 50+ this weekend - and sunny. I can hardly contain myself. Yahoo! A very nice bee last night - myself, Lois, Dolores and Mare. We missed those who weren't there. There was some terrific show & tell also.....

This is Dolores - just using up her flannel scraps - isn't it great - and so soft!



This is a baby quilt by Lois - it is so cute! The pictures are just precious....


Three babies coming for Lois' nieces - love the pinks.....


And this is for a boy - it has the cutest blue train flannel on the back....



And this one is fantastic - Dolores made this for her 'twin sister' at work. The colors are so vibrant - I'd seen this line in the Hancock's book - but the pictures don't do it justice. It is just wonderful - and she will love it!!!!



Wow - very inspirational.....what's up with everyone else? We decided on our night at the Lamb - Friday, March 26th! Is 6:30 ok? 7:00? Let me know what you think. I'll make the reservations. I'm really looking forward to it. Mare finished sewing down the binding on her patriotic baby quilt while we were sitting and chatting. I think the shower is this weekend. Pam - any news on Clark and Hillary's baby? I saw the little mat you made on your blog - very cool. I'm sure Maureen and Matt are having a ball this week with Mickey. LA - how's things in the McCabe house - everyone well? Lor - basketball should be over soon, right? Just in time for track......Cath - are you hanging in with school? When is your spring break? How are Mike and the kids? How about Peggy commenting on the blog?! Awesome - good to hear from you Peg - when is your sping break? Hope you get a chance to relax. I think that's it ladies....Enjoy these upcoming nice days - we deserve them!!!! Piece.....

Sorry to have missed Bee last evening, girls. Thanks for the re-cap and photos, Jean!!! AWESOME work you guys!!!

Does anyone have any interest in going to the *new* Lancaster Quilt Show this year?

Also, is anyone interested in the possibility of driving up to Hinkletown with me one day next week? I'll be on Spring Break. We're going to Momma Barb's this weekend & I hope to drop off Gertrude for a spa treatment. I will NEED to pick her up later in the week!

No baby news yet...we're hoping perhaps this weekend while we're visiting Barb?! If not by Monday, she will be induced. I keep you posted. ; )

LA - I think they know better than to seat us together at Bible study!! Rats.....the good news for you is that you have all the answer sheets for next year!!! Pam - I was planning on going up to the Lancaster show for the day on Saturday - I think it's the 27th? Anyhow - I'm hoping to go...wish I could go to Hinkletown but I'm working next week. Y'all have a nice weekend.....piece....

Lucy I'm home!!! Hello Mamas. Great to be back. Sorry I missed seeing the beauties shown on Wednesday. Oooh were my fingers itching to flannel fondle! Matt & I had a great time, but boy was it cold. Looking forward to some warm weather this weekend. I'm sew in for the Lamb. If anyone needs a ride let me know. Can't wait to see everyone and make plans for Lancaster!

Welcome home Maureen and Matt! Spring break is this week - thank God!! Have a big paper due next Tuesday, the 16th, so that is what I will be doing this week. I'm sorry I missed bee last week - everyone is so productive! Can't wait for dinner. It doesn't matter what time to me - I'll be there!!
