How about....

Thursday? There has not been a great response one way or the other - so I just picked. Hope you can stop by on Thursday.....wishing you all a good week - it is now less than a month until Lancaster......piece.

Happy Monday.....

Hello, ladies...did you all have a nice weekend? How's the baby mama feeling? Dolores - is Gracie back home safe and sound? Cathy has a big stat test tonight....send her some ++ juju, ok? How about a bee this week? Wednesday or Thursday? Anyone around? Forgot to ask - how did the auction go? I hope they made some big bucks......let me know about bee.......time is marching to April.....can't wait. Giving up candy for lent so I'm on a sugar binge today and tomorrow - Fat Tuesday. Take care, girls....piece.

Random musings....

Hello, ladies.....a few random things today. First - a giant HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Mama Barb! Enjoy your day!! I forgot to mention in the weekend wrap-up - we came up with a 'challenge' idea - or possibly a different spin on the pollyanna next year. We can talk about it in Lancaster. Welcome back from Ohio, Lois. Hope your Mom is well. Speaking of well.....Dolores - how is Gracie? I have a back-up machine I can bring over tonight if you are in need/withdrawal. Pam - did you have a nice weekend at the beach? Sunday was a lovely day. Cath - are you on spring break next week? LA - thinking of you - how's Grandpop? Good luck to the girls working on the auction this weekend. I'm sure you're looking forward to Sunday! Consuelo - I'll drop off your pirate CD this weekend. Girls....I'll leave you with a few bits of 'country wisdom'

Unattractive: He was so ugly as a baby, they fed him with a slingshot.

Not facing reality: My dog sleeps in the garage but that don't make him no truck.

Piece....

Happy Birthday!!!!

Mare - Happy Birthday!!!!! Hope you have a wonderful day....and many, many more.

Boy, it went quickly!!!

Hello, ladies....hope everyone had a nice weekend. The three mamas who went to the shore were very productive - and we missed those who couldn't come. It was a nice little treat while waiting for Lancaster......and now - on to the show & tell:

Consuelo finished the auction quilt for Matt's school - isn't it awesome?! The striped binding is just terrific - and the green really sets off the cool blocks that the kids made. During the quilting phase, Consuelo was persuded that it's time to upgrade her machine....yay! She's already considering names - you know she's always prepared!

Mare had some plaids hanging around and made this awesome quilt for her father-in-law. It's very masculine - and it's huge! Doesn't the black really set off the colors? She also got a lot of homework done!

She also made these for Kevin - the dog ate his other ones....

I needed a 'springy' quilt for my little quilt rack - still deciding whether to bling the white squares.

This is the third baby quilt I've gotten from one jelly roll - and some white. Another 'lawn chair quilt' - I love this pattern. Still needs to be quilted and then will be winging its way to England.

This is the big t-shirt quilt that I HAD to finish this weekend - and I did - thanks to the team effort save from Mare and Consuelo - OY! Details to follow in person...

And, of course, Kelly sent someone along with me - Stewart the minion. He did some sight-seeing when he wasn't assisting me.....here he is visiting Lucy in neaby Margate...

A fun time.....thanks to Mare's sister for her generosity. Take care.....hope to see y'all soon.....piece.

Tales of fabric adventures....

(naked) back problems, Louis Vuitton - these are just some of the varied topics that were discussed at bee.....we missed those who weren't there. Lois - good luck in Ohio. Dolores.....the black flannel was procured. Little Kevin has been sick - along with a few of the DeMarcos - hope everyone is feeling better. Lori had the silhouette quilt she is making for the SH auction - very cool. Pam had two applique pieces with her - in the LV bag no less.....just beautiful! And Maureen had the fruits of her first 'solo' trip to the Hayloft. Lots of laughs, as always. Have a wonderful weekend ladies.....next week is March - spring is coming and so is the Lancaster trip - yahoo!! Piece.....

A victorious call....

from the Hayloft parking lot!! Consuelo got her fabric (on sale), got the black flannel and a replacement blade for her rotary cutter! OY! All by herself......can we get a shoutout for our favorite Schnibbler!!!!! Yahoo! A little lump in my throat...a little tear in my eye.....
