Bee wrap-up, various happenings.....

Ladies - Cathy and I had a nice visit with Consuelo at her casa on Thursday night. We had tea and a wonderful chat. It was nice to catch up. Billy Henderson is moving into his first place this weekend - down near the art museum. Good luck, Billy! Kerry had a great time on her service trip to Guatemala and is settled back at SJU for her final semester. That just went so quickly. We had some show & tell....Cathy's been busy.

This is just beautiful - a ufo quilt top finished! I love the spinning motion that is created....


Cath had lots of purple scraps left from Devyn's quilt - and made this beautiful string quilt...


Did I mention is was a lot of scraps - she made two!


I'd made another 'go-to' baby quilt for a shower at work on Wednesday.


This is a little fabric box - from an online tutorial - very simple.


This is it with three fat quarters in it - so you get an idea of the size.


Good luck to Lois who goes in for cataract surgery on Thursday. You know you'll have lots of 'mama prayers going with you!

Talked with LA about sewing day at Brookline Fire Co - they have some Sundays open. How about February 9th or March 2nd? Either of those work for anyone? If you can't comment here, please send me an email.

I'd like to have another Quiltmama tea also. February 22nd? 23rd? Burkie is away that weekend - a testosterone-free house!!

Didn't today's weather feel great - and even warmer tomorrow. What a nice break! January is finally out of here - the end is in sight!! Wishing you all a nice upcoming week. Take care......peace.

I love all of the show and tell. What talent ladies you all are. You inspire me to clean out my stash and get quilting.

Great jobs on the quilts and the cloth box. I am inspired.
