A sunny Wednesday

Hello, ladies! A beautiful day out there today - hope you get out to enjoy some of it. A very nice bee last night - it seems like forever since we've seen each other. Cathy and Dolores - you were missed! Please say you both are coming to Brigantine!!! Consuelo - thanks so much for bringing the cake - a delicious treat! Mare - fabulous to see you after your European jaunt! Enjoyed the wine stories - why don't we have places like that here. Can you imagine how much wine we would drink? I added a link to the Canterbury quilt blog on the left....her red Aunt Millie quilt is really something and looks great on her table. What a cool idea! Pam - Houston sounds like it was a fun and somewhat stressful time. And thanks for the insights into kaFFe - as he has been imortalized. Your diamond colors are beautiful! Keeping Mama Barb and Grandpa in our prayers. LA - glad you're having fun with Olivia. You are the oldest sister and the godmother(?) - so let's get that date squared away because Brigantine beckons - we all truly look like we can use it. Lois will be winging her way to Seattle in a few hours to see those cute grandkids! Hope you and George have a ball! I'm sorry I didn't snap a picture of your cute pillowcases. The Donovan quilt you had last time is for Christmas, is that right? Looking foward to your pictures and stories when you come back - and so glad you're planning on the shore weekend!! Lori picked up a kit at the Oaks show and brought the top last night - isn't it terrific? Lor - the blues really pop out of the picture - and you added those, right? Nicely done!


This is the tumbler top I hand-pieced while I was down the shore. Mare suggested I hand quilt it - and it's about half done. Erin wants to hang it in her room.

Here's the dodge ball quilt I finished as a wedding gift. I enjoyed making it - and below is a detail of the machine quilted flower I put in each block.

Did I forget anything? There was much flu discussion - Gerry is feeling better thankfully. Pam - enjoy your class tonight. Phils at 8:07 - one win away from the World Series - very exciting! More hand-quilting during that game - it helps my nerves! Safe trip, Lois. See y'all soon. Let the countdown begin - B minus 16 till shore weekend! Yahoo!!!! Piece....
