Lois - I'm glad to hear you're feeling better. That's good! What's your show 'n tell?!
Jean - no, we didn't go to the Beach. That's ok. We did take some time off for a little fun around here today. ; )
Mare - I've been thinking of you & yours today. Regardless of the time...
Lor - glad you didn't mind coming over to our construction zone to discuss thread. For those who want an answer to the hand applique thread question...I use Mettler 60/2 thread. It's 100% cotton, 60 weight, 2 ply & has green writing on the spool. It can be-e a challenge to find. I used to take snippets of fabric to quilt shows (insert LANCASTER!!!) & buy the thread colors I needed. There is a shop in Hershey, Quiltmaker's Cottage, that carries this thread. I bought their whole Karen Kay Buckley assortment some years ago & have been using it ever since - such a wise investment!!! They should be @ Lancaster. ; ) Feel free to mention Karen, Barb or Barb's DIL to them...
I've been stitching when I get the chance...or when the boss isn't looking... I tucked in ALL the thread tails on my Churn Dash studio quilt. I am just about finished whip stitching the binding to the back of the Alaska quilt. I finished my 3rd Bunny Hill block! Next, I'd like to finish my Pastel Bubbles quilt top. And, I still haven't quilted my Whig Rose mini quilt. Upcoming, I'll be working on the Vibrant Diamonds quilt top that I started down the shore. What projects have you been working on?!
I will soon be ordering from J. Hittle. Is there anything that you need? Check out their website...remember, it's a challenge to navigate!
Enjoy your weekend. : ) This is the end of our Spring Break. It was wonderful while it lasted!!!
Pieceflly, Pam
